Anglers Net virus

[Arf]

Elton,

 

During the last half hour I've started getting virus warnings each time I load a page on Angler's Net.

I've attached a screenshot of the warning.

 

Cheers,

Arf

Me too, although mine says it's a Trojan. Avast is dealing with it (or says it is) but it comes up on each page I open.

I'm thinking that is probably a false positive by Avast but I've reported it so Si & Elton can take a look.

 

We apparently do have a 404.htm page which would normally be informational about a missing site page (error 404 is page/file not found). Ours displays the anglersnet.co.uk home page. I can't find any signs of an infection there.

[Newt]

Si had a look at our actual 404.htm page and it is clean.

[Elton]

Arf/Ayjay,

 

Where were you on the site when this happened?

[grumpybum]

I'm getting the same message from avast. I get it as soon as AN starts to load. I abort the connection as avast advises. I get the warning again every time I try to access any of the forums

[Elton]

I've downloaded Avast, and I think we've pinpointed what's happening.

 

Can you let me know when/where you get any subsequent warnings, please?

[ayjay]

It's all O.K. this morning.

[Elton]

If you see it elsewhere on the site, though, I'd be grateful if you could let me know.
