u cant get a virus through just looking at a website (apart from some old versions of IE). Make sure you are using a decent browser like Opera or Firefox or IE7 and you should be fine.

Same. My antivirus software had been busy for the past few days when I've been on FT. Seems ok on the main pages, but kicks off when I look at individual topics. Similar thing when I try to preview and/or send PMs.

Oh, and that's with the latest version of IE.

I wasn't getting it myself but I think you should be virus free now, let me know if it comes back again.

What was it? :unsure:

i did what danny suggested and tried mozilla firefox and its not happened since

that's good ;)

Firefox actually has quite a few security issues too. The best, quickest (and safest) browser by a mile is opera - www.opera.com IMHO and is free. It looks ugly from the start but you can put a "skin" on it in a few clicks.

Yeah when I post, I get a white screen and have to come all the way back into the thread. Can't load topics from the main page.

I'm using FireFox and have had no other problems, tbh. I've got no fooking idea why you'd use IE, though, really. I resisted for ages with the whole "ffs, IE is good enough" malarkey just because I couldn't be arsed with some lame geek harping on about how much better FireFox was. Then I actually tried Mozilla and tbh, it actually IS a lot better, a lot faster, a lot more secure and magnificent at blocking pop ups. (What pop ups?!)

I got the message of a trojan when I tried to log on at lunch time from work today (through IE). Nothing when I log on from home on Firefox though.
