You may want to skip pages 14-20 because I think I was on 17 and my virus detector spotted something.
Seriously the fact that people do that is so lame. This is a good story I dont wan to have to stop reading it because im afriad of it being laced with infections.

._. i certainly didn't put a virus in there o.O
and I doubt the site would put one in.
So keep reading the chapter.
and ignore your virus program xD

yea I my cpu detects virus sometimes here on mangafox

kyu888 · 08-22-2009, 11:58 PM

It's nothing to do with any specific page, chapter or even manga
It's the adverts, so it could happen at any time when reading an manga
I've had it happen any number of times
So feel free to continue reading

Hey a good tip that I alwas do when I read manga online.
Ok right click the picture and go to properties and you see a url address to the link :

http://img01.wa.us.mangafox.com/stor...mplete.088.jpg

You take the url and put it on the url address bar. And the only thing you change is the number to the page.
088.jpg to this 089.jpg

and you can read like that with geting a viruse and leting the ADs slow you down.

I hope that helps.

Met the virus alert...weirdly enough, for an antivirus I don't have installed - page 34 of chapter 9.

I've had ZoneAlarm website popups occasionally although I've never had ZoneAlarm installed on here. Most peculiar.

I think what you've got is a viral/hijack redirect page posing as a security alert. I've been getting sticky auto-redirects from MangaFox pages more lately. I'm running an out of date FireFox, but maybe I should update it. Those ads are pretty obnoxious, too.

i noticed a hijacking pages on mangafox quite a bit, that redirects to a false virus scanner that only installs viruses, and a pain to get out of that page. mangafox seems to be more unsecure lately.

i agree with animefan22, the page that it leads to is a fake. Do not click on anything other than the "close" button and the "yes" button when it asks if you want to leave the page. The virus is fake, but if you click on download virus scanner, you will download the actual virus. It then becomes quite messy. Hope you guys don't panic like I did and remember to just go back to the mangafox page you were on

hope mangafox fixes this problem soon

Suffice it to say I'm reading 7 of the top 14 at present and the 8th is on my shortlist once it's got some more episodes up. Genres vary: In general - supernatural, fantasy, shounen, sports, and some miscellaneous others. I prefer to read a series as it's coming to a close or already finished and read it, if possible, in one go. That way I don't forget details. Although one-shots are fun for passing the time.
