Hi there! That definitely means your computer is infected. Adware and malware insert themselves into the ad spaces on sites like ours. You need to be sure and run a good cleaning program like AVG, AdAware, Spybot Search & Destroy, etc.
I, too, have received the warning. My virus protection says that my machine is clean. I think perhaps the problem lies with whomever sent the messages.
My computer has been picking up a few viruses lately and I don't know where they are coming from.

Can you log out, clear your cache (instructions at the top of this forum) - log back in and try again? Your browser might still think that plugin is active.
I went ahead and did all the busy work, closed my browser (which is the latest version of Mozilla Firefox) and then rebooted my computer. Logged back in to SCS and McAfee still gives me a red warning page telling me the site exhibits "risky behaviors" when I try to go any further than the home page of the gallery. McAfee doesn't seem to have any problems with the forums, so I'll just hang out there today. Thanks.
If I click on one of the cards on the Gallery Home Page, I can bring it up fine, however if I click on one of the categories or uploads for the last day or week, McAfee still blocks me. I didn't go through the clearing cache etc today though. Did you want me to try that again?
Also, if I click on a card link from a forum post, it lets me load it fine. The problem just seems to be if I want to bring up a category, grouping or index of cards .
If it helps, I use Mozilla Firefox and run Windows 7.

Reason: added more info
I was finally able to go in but only after my computer guy removed something through Mozilla Firefox. Now McAfee does not give me the alert. He says I am still safe.
Okay girlie - that is a REALLY old version. Can you upgrade to the current version and try again?
LMAO! Go figure... no that is my WORK computer that is having issues... if it's a old version then I guess IT is getting paid WAY to damn much... lol.... NOT a shock considering how much help they are... I wish we had better IT people.... BUT... I will just make my comments on my days off, and YIKES, that is gonna take FOREVER... I was hoping to fill my 10 hr 40 minute shift with love
