Viruses

[Spedley 0]

Has anyone had any virus warning appear when visiting this forum? I visited earlier on today and a few windows popped up saying 'script ...' and lots of unprintable charaters and then dissappeared only to be followed by a virus alert and AVG jumping into life. Then later, I returned to this site only to be warned that downloading a file called forum.mrplc could be dangerous? Also, the font on the menu accross I.E. (File, Edit, View etc) has changed? I haven't worked out why or how to change it back yet? Anyone noticed anything strange or is my problem elsewhere (this is the only place I've seen it)? P.S. I did a full virus scan which came up with the usual benign(?) Java.byteverify in the cache but nothing else? Edited 23 May 2006 by Spedley

Read THIS Spedley. I haven't read the symtoms yet but you might want to proceed with the patches. Post on that topic what you find out so everyone can read it But I think the download warning you got from forum.mrplc was because Chakorules was working on the site. I got the same thing for a few minutes Edited 23 May 2006 by TWControls

Ooops, just noticed the "clean up information" in the topic above. Doh. No, I don't have an unprotected system but nothings perfect.

I don't think you have a problem but it can't hurt to do the patches
