Keep Getting a Virus Warning Here at the forum

[rockin7e]

Here is what my anti-virus is saying when I access the forum/Rec'd the warning last nite and just now this morning....Apparently it doesn't like some of the banner ads here at the forum? within the link the word "banner" appears and the URL leads me to believe is is considered as Malware?? For some reason after I make the post the url is changed to a active link and when the link is clicked it sets my anti-virus warning to go off...

I have no idea why you are getting this warning. I logged out of Sweeps Plus and into SA to check it out. I didn't get any warnings. Please fill out a help ticket: http://www.sweepsadvantage.com/hesk22/

I just posted this:

Mainstream Websites More Likely to Harbor Malware | TechNewsDaily.com

The money quote:

"Business and industry sites are one of the top three categories visited when a malware encounter occurred."

That ad could come from anywhere

The problem isn't in the sites themselves; it's in the ads

I understand it's not the site it is the banner ads according to my anti-virus program...it is seeing it as malware/just thought I would pass the info along is all............

here is a screenshot of what I am rec'ing.......

perhaps my anti-virus is more sensitive than other programs??

rockin7e - I figured you were doing more of a general info post than complaining & I remembered it so I added it to the thread.
