Default I was trying to download a table and a virus was spotted

Yesterday and today I tried to get a tutorial table and both days my anti-virus has intercepted a virus from the download section! Just thought you'd like to know. yesterday as soon as I clicked on the download area it was spotted, today i tried to download and that was when my comp. caught it. you may wanna' check it somehow (that's a sysop thingy I guess)

What was the tables name that u loaded? Anti-virus programs are tricky sometimes. It could of been a legit virus or just thought it was a virus. When the Anti-virus catches a virus you see the name of the guilty program in the warning. Google the name and see what the virus does. Then you will know how serious the virus is. Their are cases where legit programs get confused with a virusus. That is why many Anti-virus programs have the option to reverse the quarantine or ignore specific files or folders. But it is always safer to treat the virus serious till you know what happened.

I've sent the sysadmin a detailed message about this. Yesterday, Avast on my PC and laptop, warned me that a sign of the HTML:Iframe-inf Trojan had been picked up on the link to Scapino's Flash Gordon table and in the site index. Right now, a hit on the Flash Gordon isn't causing an Avast alert so maybe it was some frame coding issue.

that was the mssgs I got too. a trojan on a table link. i was trying to download the "Chirs Tutorial Table" I ended up not using it anyhow as it's much too complicated. this table is NOT an easy one to start out with. i defaulted back to my scoring coding from my other pins. it's so much simpler to understand and use. thanks anyhow...

Thank You mlcali,
The site was hacked yesterday with a iframe injection, there is nothing wrong with the downloads.
Several files have been fixed, hope to finish the bug squashing soon.
