Hi everyone, Trying to upload and I keep getting the following error message:The upload was rejected because the uploaded file was identified as a possible attack vector.

Any clue what I may be doing wrong?

Thanks!

The identification of a "possible attack vector" is done automatically by a program looking for a specific "signature" or bitstring in the avatar you are trying to upload ... I'd suggest trying to resize and/or saving it as a different graphic file format ... If you cannot do either, PM me and I'll give you my e-mail address and I'll do it for you :mrgreen:

Flaimboy ... I thought I had sent this message to you in a PM but since I was switching machines at the time, it might have gotten lost ... I'm sorry
