VIRUS THREAT...AGAIN?

My AVG pro is blocking another threat as soon as I go onto the forum, I thought this crap had been sorted.

I think it might be some of the flash adds on the site.

If it's the adds causing this...which I doubt, then it's pretty damming to the owners of the site. Something aint right and needs to be sorted. I'm very pc savvy and my security is top notch, seems to me the site is being attacked.

It is the ads causing this problem. It has to be. We are working on taking them off at this time to make sure that is what the problem is and have always been. If only SOME people are getting the warning and not the majority then its 99% that its certain ads...

At this time, refer from clicking on any sponsor ads please.

Thank you.

When I tried to login this morning my virus checker popped up and quarantined JS/Iframe.AS trojan

It's definately the ads causing it

It was just my opinion having worked with computers for the last 15 years. It's quite a common occurrence on these type of sites.
