    Malware?

    2 different times today I logged on from home & my anti virus is detecting some kind of malware as soon as I hit the boards. A buddy told me this might mean someone has hacked into the site & implanted it? Just thought someone should be aware.

    Interesting - Spyware Doctor detected a medium-threat trojan during a scan today, and I almost never get trojans.

    Could be... could be...

    Hrm...on here from my work computer right now... Not good, not good.

    Well, thanks for making mention of it, just in case. Better safe than sorry and all that.

    I havn't seen anything yet. I've got Kaspersky (one of, if not the, best AV/AS programs) so it should lemme know if it finds anything.

    It could be any number of things, i doubt it is anything serious without either myself or neil noticing.

    Thanks for letting us know though.
