marvingard Commander Posts : 2826 Joined: 13 APR 2007 Location: 0 Status : Offline	Ummm... I'm using my work computer, and everytime I zip over to the wargamer website, I'm prompted by my virus scan saying that it just discovered an old trojan and was easily removed. The trojan ended up on my temp files, of course. Is there something wrong with the website? Is this possible that an html is infected?

I haven't run into anything and I am running Mc "Crappy" Virus Scan Interprise v7.1.0, DAT v4711, Scan engine v4.4.00. I just ran an on demand scan and came up with "nada". Vern

sabre31 Centurion Posts : 254 Joined: 17 MAY 2005 Status : Offline	Yes same here each and every time you go to the site right from the main page, no need to click on any link. My virus scanner goes berserk and prompts me to delete the file. My virus scanner detects it as: Exploit-MhtRedir.gen it seems to be in a file called top.htm not sure if that helps you guys
