  Hi, my latest blog entry just posted to our Facebook page automatically but the FB link has the red X next to it with a warning that the page is exhibiting risky behaviours… this hasn’t happened before so does anyone know why it would do this now? And is there a way to make it go?

  Thanks so much.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi there. McAfee is constantly flagging blogs as spam. I’m afraid it’s their problem, and nothing you can do to fix on the blog’s end. You can try contacting McAfee support and reporting a false positive. I’m afraid I can’t advise you how to go about doing that as I don’t use them.

  And FWIW, I viewed your blog without Avast on my computer giving any warnings, and I don’t see any hotlinked images, which is usually how malware can get on our sites, so I don’t think your site is infected.
