    Trojan Warning ?

    Hi guys... I seem to be getting a Trojan Warning everytime I visit this site. Im not sure what the story is but I got it on both my work and home PC's.

    When I do a full scan after getting the warning it all comes up clean so Im guessing its just a bogus message..

    Just wondering if anyone else has experienced this ? Im using Norton at work and Macafee at home... both give the same warning as soon as the front page loads...

    "Warning detected Trojan Dropper Filename : Icyfox[1].js" [}]

    Just a heads up... not accusing anyone of anything

    Well if it wasnt for the actual naming of a file that sounds pretty sus... "icyfox[1].js I would say it was just Norton and Macafee getting over protective as they are want to do from time to time..

    As it stands the file does not show up on your PC after the warning and both Norton and Macafee say the PC comes up clean... which either means it is clean... or Norton and Mcafee doesnt recognise that trojan yet...

    So like I said... something for the mod/managers to look into maybe..

    Just means the antivirus has been updated or your Antivirus is Protecting to high. Either that or the server the site is on is sending out wacky cookies to everyones logins. Just delete all your Temp internet files and clear ya cookies. Next login should be cool. If it does it again then thats bad news for ya Gix, will mean that when they delete the virus some data might be deleted with it[:0][:0] could send the site nuts. Happend to my work about 4 days ago. Thank god for remote back ups

    Not any more, but I updated McAffee yesterday, so that may have fixed it.
