no offense to anyone that replied so far, but no one really answered my original question. does the picture i posted mean my computer is infected or was the virus blocked. Im not asking to check the website from which it was blocked. Im only asking the meaning behind the exact phrasing of the pop up i received and thats all. so does it mean blocked or infected?

everyone is saying u have to download it first. but if not, then what is shows in the pop up is :

Infection detected!
avast! Web shield has detected a threat.
Infection: HTML:lframe-inf
URL: http://www.dittoseek.com/ads.php?username=eroa

Well, if WebShield did block it, you're safe. :)

avast! blocked the script, thus preventing infection.
