Frugaltravelguy.com is one of the travel blogs that I monitor. It's a good source of miles-related tips. His site appears to be offline today - I cannot connect.

In the last few days, it has seemed that the site has been under some sort of malware attack. My anti-virus program went crazy when I visited the site a few days ago. He then posted that he had cleaned the site, but my anti-virus program had another fit when I stopped by there yesterday.

Anyone able to connect today? Am I right that he's shut things down until he can get it all cleaned up?

I'm online, and using frugaltravelguy.blogspot.com address. Google just cleared the frugaltravelguy.com address as clean, but it takes awhile to remove the warnings.

The sites are clean. but what a PITA this has been. And I have spyware, malware and phishing scans running constantly.

I really appreciate Frugal Travel Guy and the other bloggers, because they help condense the flood on information on FT into "news you can use."

Many times he gets the scoop. It's also a good way to break people in to collecting miles if you don't want to explain the whole process.

I recently discovered this blog, and like it. The signal-to-noise ratio is very high ^, and the author sometimes uses humor to gets his points across (which I especially like).
