When I cruise pages or happen to try to reply to a post, I get a fake scanner that tries to take over.
Luckily AVG blocks it out, but it's bothersome because I would have to go to another page in order for it not to pop up [for awhile, anyway].
same with me. I have to stop the page after it JUST finishes loading or it brings me to the AVG popup..

I get it too and have for at least the past week-week and a half. It is really annoying and I do a virus scan on my computer everyday and know its not my computer it is something connected to the site. I also do adware/spyware scans and it is not that either.

Lately, I've been having to visit SC on my Safari browser since I don't have addons loaded on it. I've found that it looks like it's one of the advertisements that uses Adobe Flash, most likely. Adobe has been having some loop hole problems lately.

I believe it is a pop-up ad that tries to make it look like you have a virus or is scanning for one to get you to download their software. I have seen these before...

I know what it is!
Do NOT agree to let it do anything to your computer. It is a fake program that pretends to protect your computer, and then sets up camp and tries to pester you to buy the full version every time you boot up. It's called "Green AV." You can google that for ways to remove it from your computer if you let it slip through.
To fix it from targeting your computer through this site and others:
Firefox users, go to mozilla firefox addons and download "Blocksite." It lets you choose specific sites to block. Once you have it downloaded, click "Options" and then "Add." Type in "www.Green-AV.com" and add that. Do the same thing again for "www.Green-AV-Pro.com" and that should fix it. I couldn't remember the "Virus Doctor" site address, but put that in for good measure.
This is not the only site this program is targeting. It's the second time in a week we've had to add it. So far, the blocksite addon has kept it from hijacking my computer. :-)

I get it with Firefox. McAfee didn't pick it up on the quick scan, but when I did the full scan it came back as a trojan vundo as someone else noted above. I don't get it at work, so the settings on this computer must be different.

Are you using Adblock on Firefox? I do, and I don't even see ads or popups on SC (none at all).

Ditto! Although I also use FlashBlock and NoScript so I don't know which works first lol.
