Title: JS:Pdfka-VQ [Expl] detected while visiting dicts.info?
Post by: bms on January 08, 2010, 08:10:34 AM
I've visited this website multiple times before and have never had this happen..But when I go onto the website, I get a foreign poppup, as well as avast, saying that it has detected JS:Pdfka-VQ [Expl]. Did I get a virus from this, did avast protect me, or was it a false reading? And what does JS:Pdfka-VQ [Expl] do?

Hi Bms,

Ok, since avast detected it before you access into that infected website. You maybe avoid from this infection.

You may try to analyze your visited website in to :

http://www.freedrweb.com/for+web+sites/

http://www.unmaskparasites.com/

http://www.mywot.com/

You may able to get information from those website information.

Otherwise in this forum was ever discussed before, please refered to : http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=43660.0
