Avast is preventing me from opening 2 web pages.
It says I have a "re redirector ke trojan".

The owner of one website has scanned it, but still cannot get on there.

    js:Redirector-KE [Trj] ?

    What are the websites? Don't post a live link, but give the name here.

    I wouldn't visit it yet, despite what the owner might say.

    Definately don't try to visit the site.

    I know what I'm doing & I've just visited a site where there is a thread on the above. After a redirection to a domain hosting an exploit kit, the resulting malware downloaded is as follows:

    so the owner told you he has scanned it, but has he provided you with the scan report showing the result.

    dont trust what the site owner says as if they palnted the trojan they aren going to tell you the truth and will say they have scanned and the site is clean.

    There's a thread where the Admin says
    I am aware of this and have hired a company to take care of it. I will make an announcement at the top of the forum front page. Thanks for hanging in there! There is no threat to anyone's computer. The forum is only text and pictures.

    Initially it looks like there is a very real threat to user's computers.

    Legitimate websites can be and are hacked occasionally. You will be able to visit again once the site is cleaned up & the malicious code is removed.
