I don't know who it is, but SOMEONE has a WORM, and it is in the website now.  My computers AVS has been going NUTS with the last couple of posts.

So far EVERY POST I open up comes up with the AVS telling me it is blocking the site itself from putting a WORM in my computer.

I sent a PM to all of the mods.  Mr. SelfDestruct has the same AVS that I do, and it is doing it to him as well.  He is going to look into it.

Jay, can I make a recommendation for an AVS program?  It is the same one that I use, and the home version is FREE.  It is called AVAST!

I HIGHLY recommend it.  It has saved my poor lappy more times than I can count.

3.1 Cutlass, if you clicked on this link, and it didn't warn you about the malware, then it is not all that good.  I recommend running your program now.  I am STILL getting the warning.

I used to use symantec, and after losing my last computer to a virus that it didn't catch, I decided that they really are not worth it.

you know.  Since it is MALWARE, not all AVS's will alert you too it.  I have it so avast will alert me to EVERYTHING, but I think some of the other ones only alert you to a flat out virus.

not getting warnings anymore.  I got tired of that sound last night, so I went to bed early.

I just opened 8 different threads and not one of them did the warning.  I guess that one was the one causing the whole problem.

For me, it was the IS THERE ANY LUMINA FANS? thread in the gen 1 general section.  That is also the thread that is now missing.

Once it was deleted, my computer no longer threw up warnings whenever I clicked on ANY thread.
