Malware detected

Submitted by Bluestreak on

I know we have been having past issues with malware the past few days but per Brian's last post I thought we had a clean chit and no files were infected.

 

Today I got a popup saying that the website is infected with a Trojan. Anyone else had this experience today?

...with Malware last night. Brought my computer to its knees. Probably somewhat my fault for still using Internet Explorer. Will using Firefox help me prevent these issues?

Got Windows 7 Ultimate browsing mostly using Firefox with the add-ons NoScript and AdBlockPlus (with fanboy's list). And don't run into many problems. I hardly ever see ads not just here, but anywhere! Also could these problems be an operating system issue? Like are you still using WinXP or Vista?

I am using Symantec Endpoint Protection and I get the following warning:

Traffic from IP Address 92.38.233.191 is blocked from 7/14/2011 9:19.46 AM to 7/14/2011 9:29:46 AM.

[SID: 24290] Web Attack: Blackhole Toolkit Activity is detected.

Is this the same message that you are all getting?
