Be aware: HRN Tractor website infected with this

[Bald Rick]

It may only be me, but I was looking for a bit of kit & clicked on HRN Tractors webpage.
Sort of loaded but then turned in to gibberish with a pop up box telling me that the webpage ran Hoefler Text which was unsupported on my current version of Google Chrome & that I should update the fonts.
Although I clicked on the update, fortunately it wouldn't load & a subsequent search lead me to this:

Take care. The Russians are everywhere

Maybe they gave as good a customer service to some one with a hacking friend ,as they did for me. I'll not be doing business with them again in a hurry.

This almost made me want to look at HRN website , on second thoughts I think I will resist

I've still got the machine, but it cost a lot straight away to put right, bearings, one shaft and the control box, spoke to them, said if I sent a copy of bill they would have a look, I wasn't expecting them to cover it all, second hand machine and all that, but thought they might offer to cover some of the parts, as a sign of good faith, wrote several times but never acknowledged or replied, not a lot you can do 400 miles away.

not a lot you can do 400 miles away.

Plenty near enough to email them a virus.

I told Neil Barclay he was the Scottish version of QF, that upset him but is about right from what you hear and read and you and I have experienced, barge pole touch.
