website issue

No issues here?

The URL http://www.gearhead-efi.com/ goes to a home page.

The URL http://www.gearhead-efi.com/Fuel-Injection/forum.php is the main forum page.

I think some issues from over protective virus software is the names added in this forum at end of URL. Look at URL of this page, it ends in /showthread.php?2694

But for search engines it adds name of the thread "-website-issue"

I don't believe this is a website issue. Several months ago some hackers attacked gearhead and managed to redirect the URL http://www.gearhead-efi.com/ to a different site. Mark fixed it and all is well. But for some reason, google is not connecting to gearhead when you click on that link. The first time I tried it I was directed to the hacker's site from the redirect. The hacker's site isn't active so no worries there. Now when I try it I go through a series of redirects and end up on yahoo. This may be a DNS issue, or something with Google not updating link information. But you can tell there's nothing wrong with gearhead-efi by entering that link directly into the browser (or possibly by clicking on the link in this thread). Small detail: The only link that seems redirected in google is gearhead-efi.com/ with a forward slash at the end.

Edit: I placed a request with Google to remove their URL for the offending site. It seems to be working correctly for me, now.

Windows 7 my not allow the download if it doesn't recognize the extension. Is it all files from gearhead when running windows 7 or just .cal?

I guess explorer had a new security deal update a few weeks ago don't know if that was it but I went to tools in internet explorer and added efigearhead to my compatibility mode list and all works well now

I use Chrome so never had an issue...

There's still a problem. I've actually followed the link through google to the redirect page and gotten the next link. Google says they just refreshed their information on the 1/5 so maybe there's something left on gearhead. Guess I've got some learning to do.

I also get an "invalid redirect" when I log in from work. I'll play with it if I have time.

I found it!

Should be OK now in Internet Explorer as well as Chrome from the Google.
