postimage.org blocked by Kaperski

Just tried to open postimage to download a picture onto DDK, have done this for years.

Kaperski is blocking that provider as insecure and I cannot over-ride it, it simply blocks access.

Has this happened to anyone else?

Just read Postimage in possibly involved with phishing, hence the Kap ban.

What other image providers are used by others on here please?

Yes, happened to me yesterday for the first time...

I used https://imgbb.com/ and it worked fine.

Thank you Keith.
They were top of my list today.
Block kicked-off yesterday.

Thought it was just me, have had a string of PC issues lately.

Keith:
Account with imgbb all done, but what settings do you select before clicking 'copy' of the chosen image?
The copy cannot be 'img' on the DDK post page, so picture is there but does not open to view automatically.

Cracked it.

BBCode full does the trick.

Post image is bit better to use, but at least imgbb works!
