I'm using Hotspot Shield VPN for my laptop and smartphones. Whenever I go to TUGs BB I get a message that the site is reportedly infected by Malware; Hotspot Shield will not allow access but instead shows a snapshot of the site. Anyone have any info on this report of malware?

Does it give you any more information than that? Perhaps a link to some sort of report?

We referred this to the folks at Hotspot on April 27. We've just heard back:

Hello,

We made some changes on our end and tested OK.

Can you please confirm?

Many thanks for your patience.

Thanks,
