Default virus threat!!

My AVG anti-virus keeps showing me a "threat blocked" message with the file name "clicksnetworks.org/jscript/pixel.js" and threat name "Exploit Blackhole Exploit Kit (2094) whenever I open the forum or wherever I go in the forum. This just started today, yesterday was fine. Is anyone else receiving any anti-virus messages, and could the moderators please investigate? Thanks!!

Sounds like you might have a redirector working. Try downloading the free malwarebytes program from http://www.malwarebytes.org/.

If that is your problem this program should find it and fix it.

This site seems to be acting a bit goofy too. It seems to be sending me to the bottom of the page instead of the top. May be sort problem on the site.

Has anyone tried the malwarebytes yet?

I sent a message to the webmaster so they can check their side. We'll have to see if anyone is working on MLK day.

It sounds like this site has been compromised. Might be a good idea to stay off until the webmasters can sort it out.

Well I lost my comp. GeekSquad tried to fix it for the past 7 hours. They can't get my desktop up, everything else they fixed. Guess its time for a new one.
