AND Microsoft Security Essentials reports a "drive by" (not specifically requested by user) download it calls by filename "0B4EAd01" and "ta[1].txt from another visit which it identifies as "VirTool:JS/Obfuscator:CC", a tool "... used to create viruses, worms and other malware."� The fact that the download uses different names at different time does not look good!!� Microsoft has not fully-classified this implementation and are now working on the sample which was downloaded (without my authorisation) to my machine.� If this is your code and it is harmless they will maybe get around sometime to re-classifying it for the benefit of other users.

Perhaps it is only for the DjVu Browser Plug-in you mention? - but if so, installation must not attempt automatic download and you should know many visitors will have script execution disabled so it would not work in any event.� Even if Microsoft reclassify the installation on your page, the "drive-by" method of installation would cause alarm.� It is indistinguishable from a malicious exploit at the point of first contact.

It is also possible that this is nothing you did but your site has been hacked by criminals?� Or perhaps your page behaves differently with different browsers?� I used Firefox version 11.0 one time and Internet Explorer version 8.0.6001.181702 another time.� It is sad that such security as we now see has been made necessary because criminals misuse the internet and spoil it for everyone else.

On the missinglynx.com WW I section it has some pictures of armored cars at Vladivostok 1918-19. One of them No.3 is an Armstrong Whitworth in pic 4,6,8 &12. The others i can't ID two are numbered 1 and 2 so I guess they are part of the same unit.

On the great war forums eastern front section they have reprints of the Russian wartime magazine war notes, www.genrogge.ru they have some armored car pics of note:

Page 590 they have what looks like a picture of the BAK captured by the Russian 246th Infantry regiment pictured on this site. It has a 2Lt Svetovidov awarded the order of St george 4th century (class?) for capturing it.

Page 1311 they have a picture of Lt Kolosov and his armored car, car and motorcycle. The armored car looks like a Austin they call it a "Bronepobil" "Yhe Standard"

Page 2057 shows a drawing of "Beast" a Bronepobil sent in for repair. It looks like a Putilov-Garford to me.

Pehaps someone who has more knowledge of armored cars and Russian might look at these pictures and ID them ect.

Ivan · Field Marshal

My PC blocket the site (Virus!!!).

Can you the pictures download?

In Vladivostok was ONLY THREE armoured cars - built by "Dalzavod" on Chassis of American-FIAT. Here all three toghetel.

No "Armstrong-Whitworth"!!! Russian construction 1918.

Statistics of false positives is not greater than about one percent, according to my observations.

Absolutely majority of users simply looks, reads and get pleasure from this rare "War notes 1914-15-16-17". Some people found photos of their relatives in these journals. Many of the photos published here only, in these journals.

Archivarius, thank you very mutch! Look please my private message.

JamesAPrattIII · Lieutenant-Colonel

Thanks for the help. everyone. I understand some people have found War Notes usefull because they have found pictures of their relatives in it. I guess after WW I, the revolution, the civil war , stalin and his purges, WW II these may be the only known photos of some of these people.
