If you're reading this and did not get the virus warning, your are most likely infected. Originally Posted by Bubba3452

If you aren't getting the warning it could just be due to your system blocking it. Some people don't have their Alerts turned on, they just have the anti-virus packages handle it behind the scenes.

Very good idea to update your software and run a complete scan anyway.

The owners of the board identified the culprit and banned him. It wasn't Sophia's banner. Originally Posted by coven

Not sure how a single user could perform an attack script on others logged in and using the site unless they were an Admin of the site. That's way outside my knowledge base that includes quite a bit of time behind a keyboard earning a living creating code on various platforms.

Amber,

Google caches page requests, the owners have to wait until Google's scanning removes all issues from the caching servers.
I use both Norton and Microsoft Security Essentials. Sometimes Microsoft Security picks up viruses that Norton does not.

As of right now, 6:47 PM CST, no alarms or blocked site message when I returned to the site.
