Me to -- I have gotten it three times this morning. I'm not able to cut/paste the Norton alert message. But it does say the attacking computer is IP 91.218.38.160, 80. Same IP three different times. If you don't have a virus blocker and firewall -- there's lots of danger out there. Be careful.

I sent Keith a heads up on the same problem early on the 15th. when my AVG started alerting on the site. He looked at my cut and paste of the IP and alert data and said it was normal. I went to CNet and reviewed their recommended Free Security Suites. Besides AVG, they had a product named Avast that was equal in ranking. I uninstalled AVG and installed Avast. I've had no problems with the site since the switch. By all means contact Keith so that he knows that it wasn't just me experiencing the problem.

Kaspersky (the best) detects it as well

Using Firefox, I had to disable javascript to keep my browser from jumping back to my homepage. I could only see this site for about 5 seconds.
Maybe there is some kind of problem with a program using javascript on this site.

Quite possible. When I was discussing this problem with Keith, it appeared to him that it was limited to me, my computer or my security software. Everyone needs to send him an email and let him know that the problem is being experienced by a significant number of members.

Ditto folks! My experince started when some lady posted some advertisment on canadian drugs and I opened her link. Skip or somebody zaped her post but it attempted to infect everything on my computer.
