Still trying to load whenever I go to any forum page.

 

My Kapersky blocks it, but its the same HEUR virus each time.

 

I googled it...definitely malware:

 

If you are using Kaspersky Anti Virus 7, or Kaspersky Internet Security 7, you may have come across the detection “Heur: Trojan.win32.Generic”, “Heur: Trojan.Win32.Downloader”, “Heur: Trojan.Script.Iframer” or similar. Kaspersky’s viruslist currently does not have a description for this detection.

 

Heur.Trojan.Generic, Heur.Downloader, and other detections given by Kaspersky that begin with Heur. are files that are being flagged by the new heuristics engine that has been introduced in Version 7 of Kaspersky’s home user products. These detections encompass a wide range of malware, using special techniques developed by the engineers and virus analysts at Kaspersky Lab to flag suspicious files.

I have scanned it with McAfee and Avast and there is nothing. I am not familiar with Kapersky but it would be wierd for only that to find something. :wacko:

Heuristic detection algorithms can often result in false positives. It could very well be that it has detected a threat which has not been classified yet and is therefore not being detected by other products. It is also entirely possible that you are getting a false positive.

 

I don't think you can be certain this is a real threat at this point. Better to be cautious though.
