What browser and anti-virus are you using? Also, what page did you go to when you got the alert?


I am running IE8 with Trend Micro PC-Cillin anti-virus and am getting, "WARNING: Dangerous Website; Address: http://todtraf.info/top100/in.cgi?9; Credibility: Dangerous; Category: Spyware".
Time and Price baby!!

Hey, that's not a link on the Traders-Talk server, it's from somewhere else.
Mark, looks like an advertiser may be having problems. We may need to yank them one by one until we can identify the sponsor.

btw: Not having any alerts or notifications from behind my secure firewall; running IE 8 from here.

OK, we had a situation like this before. It was a goofy portion of a script that was on an ad, briefly. Google picked it up and then advises folks using Chrome of a problem. I'm not sure who is the problem outfit, but chances are, it's harmless. As soon as I can get in, I'll have Google take a look at the site and see if they can back out the alert. I have checked and this code is NOT running on our site. This is definitely 3rd party. In the meantime, we may take down some of the adcode in order to try to address the risk (though I think it's small). Mark

"So they say" indeed. My computer developed a little "stutter step" after this incident. When I open any post and I start to scroll down to read it, and it scrolls {"pops"} back to top of page by itself. Anybody else experiencing this?

Yes, the same here. Just tried to load sites from the browser history and it looks like every single page is affected. Problem is, I have to deactivate the security option in Safari 5 to load the site.

I'm running Mozilla, and while I was one of the infected ones the last time this happened; no problems at all today.
