Well, considering that URL comes from clicking any of these ad's on the website...and I consider all, and I quote, "ALL" ad's on any website a potential virus/trojan/malware/ect. This could easily be true without knowledge of the website administrator. So, maybe it is, but that does not effect me as I never click on ads, no matter the location. So, for everyone safety, take these precautions; as a student in Computer Science, I suggest never click on an ad. If you find something interesting, watch the ad for identifying names or subjects and search for it in a safe manner. This is my opinion on the subject matter and I can not fully support that my claims are true. Edit: grammer/additional info/sentence flow |

So you detected malware? Why the heck are you using Internet Explorer?! Firefox automaticly blocks all that off. |

Hmm. That is very odd. If this is the case, then its not this site. Something is worming itself through your system, because I haven't been hit with anything after being on this site for months. |

He probably has a rootkit. This site is free of malicious software. |

If you can provide a screen shot of the ads on the page when this occurs please send it to ben@mmorpg.com and I will take care of it immediately.
UPDATE: I retrieved the .swf from gameads directly and scanned it locally using Avast and it came up clean. Unfortuntely this probably means you've got problems locally on your machine. |
