Virus on this site? - Subaru Outback

Radar · 12-18-2011, 08:23 PM

As of this writing, my Kaspersky anti-virus is throwing up virus warnings upon loading every page here. I haven't known Kaspersky to cry wolf, so I suggest that the site administrator needs to investigate.

It is reported to be a "40934-virus-site." The event is described as a "Trojan.Script.Iframer"

There have been a lot of rogue ads lately on different forums...especially from forums that use google ads. Probably the same thing here.

My norton 360 just blocked an ad hiding an attack named Siberia Toolkit Download Attack 2. Never had this happen before on this site. Just surf with good software.

We've had several sites with this issue over the weekend. Pretty much all cleaned up, but thank you for posting this. It's always good to get the virus names just in case.

Yup, same here, and +1 with the software!

Thanks for resolving it so quickly! It was more annoying than anything

Anyone that didn't see a "block" should probably do a scan.

Norton is telling me this site has attacked my computer several times today and calls it Mass Attack Injection Website 5.

It's one of the ad banners up above causing that. It's been happening all across the AutoForums sites. I'm on 3 others and they've all seen this happen.
