Trojan Horse Found in Advertisement Hey Kat,
I was loading the SC and I got a pop up from Avast, my anti virus software, and it indicated that there was a trojan attached to the following address:
http://widgetserver.com/proxy/FeedProxy?target=http%3A%2F%2Fwww%2Etheweighwewere %2Ecom%2Fread%2Dweight%2Dloss%2Dstories%2Findex%2E 1%2Erss&token=5f65dcc75b13d0f41fef8f0be7dc84565ddbdc5a0000 0120da3c9550\{gzip}
I came to this forum and so it was loading again, and did the same warning, so not sure which advertisement it may be on, just thought you'd want to know.
If you need any more info from me, let me know.

I got another post about this earlier.
I haven't altered the code at all (in months, actually), so I'm not really sure what could be happening at the moment.
Will look into it.

Is it the widget or the ad? (someone alerted me to a 'widget' issue earlier today. If it's an add, something else is going on.)
Where on the page does it appear?

I think it's the widget. It seems to appear for me, on each page that loads.
This is the file name:

Also use avast, and was also getting the same thing. I just got it to stop by hitting "block" on both the widgets. Gotta love Firefox!

Okay, yeah. At first this was just coming up once in a while if I clicked on certain things, but right now it's coming up EVERY time the webpage changes on SC. It's getting super annoying and I don't want crap messing with my computer because I have a TON of important things on here. Yikes!

When you research the malware name it says something to do with Java Script.
