		 I have tried accessing mi a lot yesterday and it kept telling me that some threats were blocked . Also, I was able to access mi by opening a new tab on Google chrome and from there clicking on one of the previously visited mi pages. This method did not work all the time. I am not sure what's going on with macinsiders.

 I get this message too, and AVG pops up saying it detected a threat and won't let me on the site. Tried on two different computers with two different anti virus programs, same thing.

		Hi all, 
The homepage error ('Call to undefined function') has been corrected. The homepage should be working for everyone again. 
 
The 'trojan' error, specifically the one that comes from Google blocking the site for being 'unsafe' is completely false. We've had this isssue come up in the past, and it appears to be caused by one of the third-party banner ads triggering Google to think the site is unsafe. I've been in contact with our third-party banner advertising company (at least the one that seems to be triggering that message) and they've assured me there are no trojans or anything of the sort and are looking to rectify the issue.
 
In the meantime I've removed the big box ad that appears to be causing the problems. 
 
Rest assured, the site is  safe. 
 
If you have any questions you can reach me at  [email protected]  om any time.
