Pretty sure I picked up a virus off one of the threads last night. Wiped out my laptop. The Corvette forum was the only site I visited, wish I could remember which thread it showed up on (I ignored warning from my panda anti virus software) Please be careful.

Since 2004 I've never had that kind of a problem here.

Wiped out your laptop how? You mean you wiped your laptop to fix the issue?
