I have had a few people express some concerns about the site be blocked by McAfee. I am working on the this on several of different ways.

1. Checking with McAfee www.paflyfish.com comes up as a medium risk with:
-Marketing/Merchandising
- PUPs (potentially unwanted programs)
Because we serve a lot of links from the forum I think this is some of the issue. Also the backend CMS is likely an issue. I do see some other forums do not have this issue.

2. I have checked with other online validation services and Paflyfish comes up clean

3. Been working on a AutoSSL certificate for the site which helps

I have plenty of ideas, but if anyone is in the business with hosting please PM me. Really looking for help from those that do this for a living.
 
The PUP designation might have something to do with the use of quantserve for tracking.. Probably the Marketing/Merchandising category too, although that could just be the ads coming off of the site. I believe ever website in the world would fall under the Marketing/Merchandising category though.
