Hi, I recently installed a anti-virus protection program and when I went onto fanmail.biz, it said at Low risk and I wanted to know if anyone knew any information if this site is okay to view without worrying i'm going to get some kind of malicious virus. Thankyou very much! :D

I've been on this site for years, and have never gotten a virus from it.

My advice is: as with any website, be careful what you click on. If it looks suspicious, don't click on it. (You can always PM me if you need help).

Probably not. The only threat that should come from this website is from the ads, since it isn't uncommon for a malicious ad to sneak into their network.

Which anti-virus program are you using?

Fanmail itself seems to be safe. You may want to be cautious about links left by unknown members.

You may want to install ad-blocking software to be extra careful. With the way malicious ads are making their way into ad networks these days, even normally legit sites can cause problems.
