I'm using NOD32 and it's giving me a threat warning of JS/TrojanDownloader.IFromot.B Trojan when I try to go on the thread: http://forums.moneysavingexpert.com/showthread.html?t=485599
Any ideas? Wasn't doing it before.

    Goofygat, are you using AVG by any chance?

    Ok not just me then, ironic because I'm one of the ones who put a link in. Don't think it was mine though (I hope). I've reported problem to [EMAIL="abuse@mse"]abuse@mse[/EMAIL] I'll let them deal with it.

    I know, I shouldn't use such obscure links as crucial.com's scanner :D

    e-mail a link of the thread (or whatever is being detected) and include the detection name... make the subject of the e-mail to False Positive.

    E-mail it to support@eset.com

    Just done that, I presume it is a false positive I can't see anything particularly strange on the thread.
