I'm so pleased Avast picked this up. This is the best AV out there. I came from one that used a pop-up ad. Avast is superior.

Yes..! No pop ups here except updates and malware notifications... ;D

Just an update on this infection. I contacted the webmaster of the site and he indeed was infected. Here's his response:

Hi ...

Thank you for this warning. My website was infected indeed. This is the second time now.
Can you please run a check now ? I believe the threat was removed.

Thanks

The site is now clean with no redirects or warnings from Avast.

Thank you Avast, you saved me on this one for sure.


All the best,

scjr

We are going right with the security news, my friend,

Cybersecurity is more of an attitude than anything else. Avast Evangelists.

Use NoScript, a limited user account and a virtual machine and be safe(r)!
