www.newartoriginals.com

www.newartoriginals.com we have been receiving some feedback recently from some of our users about website pages being blocked or error messages reporting malware or a potential virus.

We have looked into this and found this is caused by Googles Safe Browsing Diagnostic. This on the face of it is a useful tool to warn you if a site has a potential virus or malware. But as always there are problems.

Many popular sites get attacked without the knowledge of the webmasters and it appears that even though the site visited may be clean any other files on the same server may end up triggering Googles Safe Browsing.

Also it appears that once a site has been flagged it may take a while up to 3 months for ALL traces of the listing to be removed from Google causing browsers such as Chrome, Firefox etc to block the site even if it is clean!

Sites such as Ebay and even Google get flagged:

http://www.timnash.co.uk/12/2008/google-spreads-malware/

http://google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?site=google.com

This does not always mean the site is definately dangerous, but there is a possibilty a problem may exist.

As Googles Safe Browsing does not appear to check in real time it is possible for sites to be flagged up dispite them being clean.

So what should you do if you are blocked entry to a site by google:

1. Contact the webmaster. The webmaster may be totally unaware the site is being blocked and the site may be clean.

2. Check the site using a real time tool that checks the code of the actual page you are visiting

Dr web is a useful tool http://online.us.drweb.com/?url=1

Just enter the URL of the site you wish to visit for example http://wwww.newartoriginals.com and you will get a real time report.

3. Use updated Anti-Virus on your PC it is much more reliable and scans in real time.

Many Thanks

new art originals scam alert

Posted by newartoriginals on October 3, 2009

new art originals scam alert

new art originals.com scam alert we get so many  clients contact us regarding the offers of exhibitions, gigs events by third parties. With so many scams out there it is important to be careful.

There are many reputable companies offering exhibition space, gigs etc, but unfortunately there are many rogues in the market place. Here are a few tips to stay safe.

1. Only deal with a genuine company! Yes it’s simple but with so many websites and emails out there it’s hard to tell so check the company register. In the UK it is Companies House and this is a government register of ALL genuine UK companies. Our registration number is 5955838

2. Use Paypal and your credit card. If something goes wrong you are covered using Paypal and your credit card. Never ever transfer money via Western Union or post cash ALWAYS use a secure payment method.

3. Check if the company has run any events before. Chances are if they have run a number of events in the past the gig is likeky to happen. A simple google search will reveal if the company has any listings in any Event Websites for example.

4. Call them up! Yes very simple  but a simple phone call can reveal a lot. It’s good to talk!

5.  Never post your art to ANYONE unless you can verify they are a real company see step 1

6. DO NOT rely on web forums. Scammers often hi jack web forums subtely promoting their services and denegrating genuine offers or companies. Only deal with companies you have checked YOURSELF!

Our NAO Awards is Coming Up Jan 2010

We are still looking for Original Artists to take part.  The response has been great so far

but we are looking for more! We want this event to be Huge. There is a £2000 prize for the best artist

and the fifteen runners up will get an exhibition opportunity at the ceremony. This is a fantastic

opportunity, registration also includes unlimited uploads to New Art Originals.com.

The competition is WORLDWIDE

To register go to www.newartoriginals.com/naoawards and click REGISTER HERE.

many thanks

new art originals scam advice

Posted by newartoriginals on October 3, 2009

new art originals.com scam advice

new art originals.com scam advice aims to help you eliminate your art world worries. With so many suspect offers and sites pooping sorry popping up it is important to suss out who the genuine ones are. We get so many concerns over companies in web forums. Please remember most of what is discussed in web forums is a personal opinion at best and complete rubbish at worst!  So it is important you stay safe by only dealing with companies you have checked YOURSELF. If you follow these simple steps you are on the right track.

1. Always ask for a company registration number in the UK Companies House lists ALL genuine UK companies and a simple search will suss out who’s genuine. Ours is 5955838. Most foreign companies will have their own registration system too. If they are not registered STAY CLEAR!

2. Ask for a VAT number. Most established companies will have one of these. Ours is 906 1605 47. This is provided by Customs and Excise. Once again if the are not registered they may be ok but chances are they are either too small, inexperienced or a scam so STAY CLEAR!

3. Call them up. Yes it’s simple. If you can’t get a human being STAY CLEAR!

Incidently A New Art Scam alert was raised by a client recently regarding Web Forums .

The concern is over the Terms and conditions on these sites. Ok all sites must have a Terms and conditions by law.But some go to excessive lengths to have rights over your postings. That could mean literally giving away the rights to your artwork,opinions and writings! Be very careful. Here is an example from a well known web Forum (Shame on You!)

“You hereby expressly grant to xxx a royalty-free, perpetual, non-exclusive, world-wide, irrevocable right and license to use, reproduce, adapt, modify, publish, edit, translate, perform, transmit, or otherwise distribute and display the Content on, in connection with, or to advertise, promote or archive the web site, and any future features & services for the xxx community, as is necessary for the operation & preservation of xxx & any future features & services for the xxx community, in any form, medium or technology now known or later developed. “

Ok so all websites need some rights over your content to resize images etc or edit innapropiate content. But once again be careful. Even when you are being faced with an apparently ‘free’ website there are pros and cons.   You may be giving away the rights to the webmaster to create a big selling book, DVD, or video game. Incidently if a site has no terms and conditions guess what?  STAY CLEAR!

Many of our clients are terrified of being scammed online. And we are constantly asked our opinion on suspected sites and scams so here are some tips. There are a number of ways to stay safe.

1. Only deal with companies that are registered companies. Any decent company will be registered with Companies House. Companies house is the official government register of ALL UK companies. New Art Originals.com

Registration Number is 5955838

Companies House

2. Always call the company in question and ask for details. A simple phonecall can tell you a lot about an organisation.

Ours is 906 1605 47. All genuine companies who have a turnover higher than the current threshhold MUST register

for VAT ( Value added Tax) Legitimate companies may also register voluntarily.

HM Revenue & Customs: VAT

4. Always pay online with credit card through Paypal or another secure online system as you are protected

new art originals scam alert

Posted by newartoriginals on October 2, 2009

new art originals scam alert

new art originals scam alert, with so many scam sites and so many offers dropping through our emails and on the web it is important to to assess the genuine companies from the bogus ones.  This is what you should check:

1. Is the company registered at companies house?  Companies House is the UK government register of all companies. If a company is listed here they are a genuine company and have to supply annual  information to the register. This register will also tell you how long the company has been trading.

New Art Originals Registration number 5955838

Companies House

The official UK government register of UK companies.

2. Is the company VAT registered?  All companies who’s turnover exceeds a certain amount are required by law to register for VAT . New Art Originals VAT number 906 1605 47

VAT registration – HM Revenue & Customs

3. Does the company provide a telephone number. A landline Telephone number is important if the company is genuine they will answer or return your call.  Always call the company for information.

4. Does the company have a company email address or a free one? A genuine company will usually have a company email for example  sales@newartoriginals.com rather than sales@hotmail.co.uk

5. Use Paypal for payment or your credit card for payment. Any transactions through Paypal are secure and the company never gets to see your card details so in the unlikely event of a problem you are covered.

Many thanks
