Ta for the warning Kat.

Took a look around the site, and upon opening the forum, my McAfee SiteAdvisor turned bright red. Didn't check to see if it had more than one problem, but the little popup warning mentioned links that can endanger your browser. -- Just in case anyone who got featured there wants to use their forum to protest. Better stay away from that forum...

Thank you for the notice, no I did not know about it, I was asked but never got back to her because I could not decide what to do, I have italian family if I was going to have it translated i would ask my uncle, same with Polish and Hungarian have friends from there too.

So what would I do now, I do not post on BSV, would but I they never seem to get approved even with my betas.

LOL Opps! Too late. I found out about this on LJ first and have already been on the forum and had my fic removed. If AVG or Spybot found any problems with the site they didn't bother to tell me about them. lol *runs off to scan computer*

Smlcspike, what difference does it make if you post on the BSV or not? Sorry...I just don't see any connection there.

nope it doesn't but just put that for people that didn't know I post anywhere else. I googled me fic and found a different site and put it on the feedback to my fic saying to take it down

I just took my own fic off the forum and sent an e mail asking her to take down all the ones (English and Italian) from the archive too. So we'll see what happens next.  I left a message that readers could find my fics on my site - that should be good enough for them.  I can't believe that anyone whose English is no better than hers could do a very good job of translating something as complicated as a fic.
