Trojan Horse Virus Secthought.E

[OmniIcyshelf]

I think it might be wise for PPT to find a different hosting sevice in the near future. Without my consent, a virus apparently was moved to my temporary internet files folder when I came to PPT's homepage. My Anti-Virus blocked it, but I'm not exactly sure how many others may get it without knowing. Is there anything anyone here can do about it for the sake of this site's integrity (Anti-PPTers will eat this up if they find out about it) and the safety of the users?

Yukio has already answered a question similar to this Here:

Hello,

Over the past 24 hours, I've had emails about this. PPT's current host had removed the alleged programs that were 'infesting' the pop ups on PPT and they appeared to be gone for a while. They've apparantly made a reappearence and I contacted the host yesterday who made a call to the advertisers.

This will be fixed ASAP.

Robin is correct. Also, many anti-virus programs identify certain spyware applications as viruses in an effort to better protect your system -- whether or not this is the case here, I can't say, but it's certainly a possibility.
