Virus found in ad.

Please no one click that link either, that may be a link to the add.. im going to try and make it so it doesn't hyperlink..

Funny you should mentioned that, my AVG 8 did the same thing, I had to close firefox, then sign back in, and no warning from AVG second time around.

Thanks for the info Vaiolust!

yea kinda creepy, especially for those who don't have virus protection, or who don't quite understand how virus' work :S

I am often helping my friends out over here, and I keep telling them to write down things I show them how to do, but do they listen, noooo...lol

lol i hear ya! i've done the same, and 2 days later, a new virus.. *sigh*

I had Avast before, but at the last of it, it kept find Virus in places I know there was none, and sometimes it did not pick up when it should have.

So now I used AVG 8, works great, the sightless thing and wham, it zaps them.

im avast for life lol.. i have a few friends in high places.. both black hatters and white hatters.. they all go to hackercon in las vegas.. 2 of them have won "spot the fed" (the federal agents trying to hire the best of the best in hacking and antihacking)

the white hatters work for nortan, avast, mcaffee, avg..

the black hatters write the viral source codes.. both kind of at war.. but come together at the convention.. interesting stuff.. but from them, i know to use avast only.. avast is the only antivirus that has no backdoor.. and live scans :)

(not to say avg is bad, its better than nortan lol but what isnt?)

Norton sucks for the space it swallows up on the hard drive....lol

I am good till 1012 with this AVG 8, it has Active programs to protect my computer from viruses, so I am happy.:)

thank u guys for enlightening my computer language.

I'm just wondering which pages your going to, where do the links live.

This explains the location
http://www.robtex.com/dns/d1.openx.org.html

I'm suspecting that like all of us with locally served information because of our IP and search history, that the USA is prone to this link, where as the rest of the world might never notice it

yes thats true, i know google ad's use your IP as a fix location and also tries to learn history, an IP blocker like peer guardian can stop that bit, but you'll still get general ones lol.. seems no way to stop it all :(

Thanks for sharing.

:) just dont want people getting virus' at there homepages lol.. that would be bad :S

I just block those annoying adds by NoScript or using Host file. Not a problem to me ese!

yea i've seen script blockers like that, i used one once but it kept cutting out things i actually wanted.. pop up pages i meant to click on, or flash things i wanted to see :S

maybe i just had a bad one.. i dunno..

Yeh the same problem is happend with but Avast catch the virous...i just closed my home page..i hope it's not so bad
thanks for the important note

Good luck

yea i love my avast! :P best AV i've ever seen, and been told its the best by some pretty high up people in the viral world lol :P

yeah of course it is the best AV...i agree with u
by the way i wanna ask u about the virus chest....as u know it contains the infected files...and when i wont to delete them there is no option avilable 4 "mark all"!!
then delete all
I mean u can delete one Infected file in each time and i think this take so much time!!
another thing i want to know ...if i left this infected files without deleting....is it aproblem?
i hope u answer me about all...

Have agood time

The chest only allows you to confirm that it was a virus file, just in case in the unlikely event a error was made, you should never need the chest.

I'm guessing you have the free version, i would expect pro to be able delete all in a single go.

Well constructed antivirals should stop files being run from those locations, it would be a nightmare to go there to delete it and actually run the file.

I use AVG and NEVER check the files, let them be deleted after 10 days or so

Hahah....of course it will be anightmare yo delete it...
Thanks alot..Mole .....for the important informations..
really u help me to inerstand what i want...exactly

Have anice day..

U can using Avira antivir, its better than avast, avast is a enter for virus !!!.. u have a freeware for avira.. try it.. :P
