Avast vs. Norton?

Avast is flagging Banghead—basically that 504 smiley face thing—as being infected with malware

For heaven's sake, why on earth isn't that little smiley hosted directly on our own forum server? It looks like it's sitting on some random, sketchy third-party site instead. 🤔

Here's the link to the emoji: http://s362974870.onlinehome.us/forums/air/public/style_emoticons/default/BANGHEAD2.jpg

I mean, is it actually possible that the folks running the forum admin side are such tech amateurs that they don't even know how to upload an emoji properly?

And honestly, that's not even the only one. There are a couple of other smileys that aren't hosted here either. They really should just move them all over to the main US server immediately. Then maybe they won't be so surprised when Google and antivirus software start giving them a hard time, right?

Hardly believable... 😕 🤣

What happened to 🤦? 🙂

They’re probably going to pull everything until they fix those annoying little smiley face issues on the XYZ servers. I guess it all really comes down to whatever the owner decides to do. It kind of paralyzes the current admin team too, since they don't have enough technical permissions to actually get their jobs done properly. Yeah, it's definitely a situation for 🤦

Look, we're basically just working on getting this whole mess sorted out right now.
Until everything is actually fixed and back to normal, some of those little emojis might just stay broken or act wonky, I guess.
