Trojan horse at this site?!?

                     Every time I've visited this site today - three or four times now - my internal virus-scan software has jumped to life and told me that I've become infected with a Trojan horse (which it has deleted). This hasn't happened at any of the other sites I've visited, so I figured I'd mention it.

You might want to consider doing some checking at your end. Just in case it helps, VirusScan tells me that this Trojan is a "Exploit-MhtRedir.gen"...

Re: Trojan horse at this site?!?

                     Dr. Strange. Thank you for bring this to our attention. I too have received alerts from my anti-virus program/firewall programs (which everyone should use!!!).

I have contact our host company where the problem is and they are currently correcting the problem on the server. They tell me that it should be cleared up within a few hours.

Please accept our sincerest appologies for any inconveniences.

                     Thanks for the tip, Doc.  It seems to be better now, at least for my scantily-protected computator.

                     Something is rotten in Denmark...or wherever they host our site.

We're going to close up shop until it gets fixed...sorry.

My advice is to stay out of the Cafe until we get it fixed, and be sure to virus scan your PC!

Re: Trojan horse at this site?!?

                     Ah ha. After 3 hours of investigation and phone calls I have learned that there was a mass hack accross the internet on most of the sites that use phpBB2 software. We now are repaired and will be updating some of the security issues that allowed this to happen on in this Cafe.
