Hi they know you scan for new channels and will pick this up your box does not talk back to them so they cannot see it. this channel will not appear on genuine boxes . just delete it.

Don't worry about this warning, v****n are just sending it in the hope people with the illegal boxes, turn the box off and pack them away to be never seen again, the reason why the illegal boxes pick this message up and the legal boxes don't I believe is they are docsis so they only pick channels in a set range of frequency and the channel in question isn't in that set range, and the illegal boxes can pick up channels which are not in that defined range. And when it happens it scares lots of people as this is not the first post about the message, so really it does what the cable companies wanted.

But there isn't anything to worry about, also eurovox boxes can't be detected because they have no talk-back.

Too much bother - I always delete it - use it as opener to forum Super Mods as all users ALWAYS delete non free channels - honest
