• Trawler Forum Classified Posting Guidelines
    • We expect ads placed to be related to the topic of this forum.
    • Ads that are inactive for 180 days or longer may be moved to the Classified Archive and locked. Ads may be relisted if the item is still current. Alternatively, owners may contact a Moderator to reinstate an archived ad.
    • The Classified section is for advertising, members are asked to refrain from posting discussions to a Classified Ad. Please start a discussion thread or PM the owner for discussions.
    • Do not hijack another member's ad by posting unsolicited commentary. Example: if a member has posted an ad offering an anchor for sale, don't add a post to his thread stating that you have an anchor you'd like to get rid of also. Posts deemed as unsolicited commentary may be removed.
    • For your own security, do NOT include your e-mail or phone number in your ad. Instead request that interested parties contact you via PM (private message) to provide owners contact info.
    • Brokers, Dealers, or those with a commercial interest in a sale are prohibited from posting in Classifieds.
    • Only Trawler Forum Commercial Members may post ads in the Commercial section. You must be a designated Commercial Member to start threads in this section of the forum. (Contact a moderator if you have questions about this)
    • Don't post links to commercial sites where you are also offering the boat, such as eBay, Craigslist or Yachtworld, etc. unless it contains a more in-depth description, additional information or pictures.
    • Place only one ad per item (you may repost only when your ad has expired and been removed).
    For Sale ads MUST include:
    • Asking price
    • Location
    • A Basic Description
    • Clear statement whether you are the owner or non-owner (posting for friend, relative, or acquaintance)
    • Don't forget to select: FOR SALE, WANTED or FREE in the Title block.
    All ads should also include ALL the following:
    • Pertinent maintenance and condition information
    • Exterior picture or pictures
    • Interior picture or pictures (boats)
    For maximum impact & exposure, it is suggested the Ad Title include: Year, Manufacturer, Model, Length, Price, and Location or at the very top of the ad body. When your item has sold or the ad is no longer relevant: Please post a Reply to the ad that the item is SOLD or click "Report Post" on post 1 of the thread to ask a moderator to archive the ad. Ads may be moved or removed by our staff at any time for any reason. All ads must comply with site rules. Thanks for your cooperation.
  • Avoid Scams.

    Our classifieds are free and anyone registered here is welcome to post an ad.
    Be aware that there are unscrupulous folks out there. Avoid any interaction that seems odd to you or �feels� wrong. Inquiries from unknown buyers, buyers �agents� and other non-traditional approaches should be treated with extreme caution.

    Beware of unsolicited contacts offering to put you in touch with someone else who is buying or selling via e-mail or text.

    Do not post your e-mail address or phone number in a classifieds ad.

    Hints that you may be dealing with a Scammer:
    • Seller or Buyer approaches you via a direct email or PM and then steers you to an off-site communication method (text or email).
    • No posts or very few forum posts.
    • Recent forum membership
    • Insists on conducting negotiations via email or text rather than PM
    • Requires payment via Bank Transfer, BitCoin/CryptoCurrency, WesternUnion or other unsecured method.
    • Buyer or Seller suggests Paypal "Friends and Family" payment. Paypal is a good way to arrange payment but an invoice for goods and services should be used rather than "Friends and Family". "Friends and Family" avoids fees BUT there is no recourse if the transaction runs aground. Friends and Family is for gifts only. There is no protection for Friends and Family transactions, so never ever use it to buy something.
    • Declines to allow viewing the item before proceeding with the transaction.

For Sale: Quick Sale PRICE REDUCTION -$15k!!!!

Greetings,
Your link was flagged by my anti-virus software as having a black hole infection!

Well, then I am most certainly not going to click on it! I'm not sure what a black hole infection is, to be honest, but it sounds awful.

Although, come to think of it, I already have a trawler! :)

Huh?

Interesting your PC told you the URL had a virus....Thanks for that I will ask my web hosting company to look at it.
Others have been there and no one else has reported this.

Here is the URL in text
Say Goodbye FOR SALE
Copy and paste it into your browser.
thanks
R,
 
Greetings,
I wasn't quick enough to note exactly what was detected but it was a black hole something or other....Is the Hadron accelerator anywhere near you Mr. R?
 
Hmmmm...not me

Interesting. I clicked on the uRL in you reply and I was not redirected to the adult friend finder site you mentioned.....

So what does that tell us ? Could it be in your machine and not mine?
R.

Your site has, indeed, been hijacked. Sorry!

Well . . . some of us could use an adult friend, I suppose. Especially if she can cook gourmet meals on a 1-burner stove, knows how to quickly cleat a dock line, doesn't mind being hollered at while the captain is trying to dock, and is financially secure enough so that moving up to a newer, bigger boat can be a reality. So may just have to check that link out . . . :)
 
Virus

I was also told that the site has a virus and than it shut down that web page!
 
Just reported it

I just report this virus thing to my web hosting company and asked them to do a virus scan. Thanks to you all for checking it for me !
R,
 
Same here. My AV stopped some sort of attack attempt. If I see it again, I'll note the description and report back.
 
Greetings,
Aw c'mon guys. Mr. Ralphy is trying to advertise his boat. Let's not get off on a tangent about lady friends OR man friend with or without black holes or viruses.
--Exploit Blackhole Exploit Kit (type 2809)-- is what I get.

Danged Ruskies!
We're on it...

Why not me?

Still cant figure out why my two computers does not detect the virus when I go to the web site.
Tried it on my wife's desktop computer....no virus detected.
Tried it on my laptop....no virus detected.

Both using Microsoft Security Essentials....which I thought was pretty good.

OK. I'm contrite. And my anti-virus program (Bit Defender) also flagged it.
 
A lot of virus's won't show up on the host's computer so that they can stay active for longer

You may want to put an add on the defevercruisers site as well as the great loop site as 2014 loopers are looking for boats and the Fall Rendeavous is only a few weeks away.
 
been doing it

thanks for the ad suggestions.
I have been advertizing on the AGLCA Forum and the Defever Cruiser's listserv. They are one of the few listservs that allows promoting a boat for sale. (MTOA will not allow it, to which I am greatly disappointed).

I just would love to see the boat sold before it gets into brokerage. 10% is such a high commission rate that it makes me sick. Real Estate folks are happy to split 5% but boat brokers roll their nose up at splitting 5%. They wont even do business at that level.

I also advertized in PassageMaker Mag for several months, Soundings Mag and web site, the MTOA web site, and Craigs List in 4 major cities.

Just tried the link. Got right in with no problems. :blush:
 
see !

Now look at that....no problem ! Same as us here with several different machines.
R,
 
Sorry, my Mac running Avast also detected a virus. Never got to your web page.
 
Just tried it again and got right in! 9/11 8:40 pm (Mac running FireFox for this site.) :blush:

Are you using any type of virus program on your Mac?

I'm on a Mac, using Firefox browser but also running Avast (free) virus program. It's Avast that's flagging the problem.

It's been on....and I just ran MacKeeper and turned up no viruses.:popcorn:
Click to expand...
May very well be one of those virus' that doesn't affect Mac's so the MacKeeper doesn't flag it (not sure as I have no experience w/ MacKeeper) but that doesn't mean the site doesn't have a virus. Personally, with this many people running this verity of OS/Virus Protection flagging it as a site with a problem I would assume there is a problem until it's proved otherwise.

What you may want to do is to run Spybot on your system to clean out what I would guess is some malware (not quite the same as a virus, but close enough). Spybot can be downloaded free (just google it) and does an excellent job of catching such stuff. If you decide to do that, then I'll give you two tips. (a) Run it as administrator -- right click on it rather than just clicking on it, and then choose the "run as administrator" option. (b) Once it is running, choose the "check for updates" first, and when that has finished then do "check for problems."

I have MacKeeper....It cleans all the accumulated junk out of the computer and has an "anti virus" program that finds the virus and quarantines it until I delete it. Great application!

MacKeeper
 
Using I-Pad, no issues, several days ago or today. No issue. Link worked both times.
