angusw2 Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 Pete, that set-up reminds me of those people who try to get as many into a phone box as possible, except you are seeing how many can observe from the same mount at the same time! Looks cool! Angus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tweedledee Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 Hi Mick, I don't know why that should be since it is just an image I uploaded to dropbox. Will have a look at Symantec. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tweedledee Posted April 11, 2013 Author Share Posted April 11, 2013 I have been using Dropbox for a while now. Maybe someone can tell me whether I have a virus or Dropbox is a virus or the image has one. I am on Linux and didn't think Linux was subject to viruses like Windows. I took the image on my iPhone. So I'm a bit confused. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 It happens on all the photo's Pete. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Tweedledum Posted April 11, 2013 Share Posted April 11, 2013 Hi Folks, Ok no virus in any of the pics, :- 1. This site has probably been picked up without a safety certificate which is why symantec is reporting this. It is reporting the site not Pete's images 2. Dropbox is a well known repository and my educated guess is this is a false positive from symantec which will clear, as the folk at Dropbox will be all over this like a rash. 3. Jpegs are usually safe as they are passive, the common way to fool you is to have a name like star.jpg.exe. So if you are not careful instead of opening a pic you have clicked on an executable piece of code. However there are ways to embed code into jpegs using third party software which I will not mention, so you should be careful opening images from unknown sources. So always keep your antivirus program on and up to date and some anti malware software Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
