avast! Reports this site as containing a trojan
 
When I logged in, my avast! virus protection program reported this site and/or one of it's links as containing a trojan.

A screen popped up informing me that someone has reported this site to Microsoft.

Here is the screenshot:

I chose the option that let me vote that I don't think there is malicious software on this site. Included in that option is a place for the owner of the site to notify Microsoft/avast! that the site has been wrongly flagged.

I actually reseived a Torjan from avast! when on the site, and when it showed me the link to the site, it was something completely different, which I wasn't even viewing.

Avast! is great, because it's free and updates constantely, but sometimes I think they have a few bugs to work on.

EDIT: But yeah, you're antivirus was probably set to high. When I first set my web shield to high, it went crazy with websites. Just set it to custom so it doesn't see the site as a threat.

But hey, if it can block POF you know your computer's safe!
