Boxrec issues

[D. Bergin]

Anybody else having constant problems with this site lately?

It's normally a wonderful site for research, date and venue checking, and it's made Ring Record Books almost worthless from a collectible standpoint.

The Wikipedia Encyclopedia portion of it also comes in handy.

However, I've been afraid to access it on a regular basis lately. Seems like I get a lot of virus warning pages, and it slows my computer to a standstill until I'm able to shut down my browser completely.

It's always been bad with Malware, but FireFox's ad blocker seemed to nip that in the bud for me years ago. Now it doesn't matter whether ad blocker is on or not.

Doesn't seem to do any permanent damage to my computer, and my virus and malware scanners don't pick up any lingering issues, but it is a huge pain in the ass for a resource I would have an extremely hard time giving up.

I don't ever have this problem with the Wiki section. Just the main record keeping site.

Any time I try to link from the Wiki to the site it comes up as an infected mess that my antiviral programs block. If I try to access it directly it is OK. I think there is a nasty bug in the Wiki part of it.
