Opera claiming malware on the site. I need your help!
If you go to the forum in Opera, it says there is malware on the site.
I need your help tracking it down,my hosting provider says they can not find it. And I have no clue what is going on

it's probably coming from the google ads and is not actually on the site.noverflow wrote:If you go to the forum in Opera, it says there is malware on the site.

opera says you're blacklisted for distributing malware, not sure why

Re: Opera claiming malware on the site. I need your help!
At least 2 forum users have been infected- Both using IE
Id ban IE from the web if I could.
Someone reported it as Trojan:JS/IframeRef.K - But I cant find out what to look for on the server side.

i honestly think the malware is coming from the banner ads and not from the site itself.noverflow wrote:

same thing with the one i linked to earlier, except for the one blacklist entry with Yandexsafebrowsing
FWIW, i agree with frib, its likely a malicious ad - there's certainly plenty of them out there. i have yet to see a warning on this site on my end. but then again i tend to see many targeted ads and not so many random ones. someone with cookies turned off (or different interests!) is probably seeing a whole different group of ads.

So weird.
Does anyone's anti virus trigger on this site? I can try turning of the ads and see if that changes anything.

Id ban it if I could. But a good deal of people have no choice at work. The irony of IT professionals forcing IE to make the network safe.
