I keep getting a message from my antivirus program that there is a Trojan in a google ad on this site

but I don't see any ads, and i don't think anyone else has this problem

so I was just wondering if there were anyone else out there with the same problem as me?

a bit annoying though... i get them every ten seconds or so

Edit: getting a bit more annoying now, it comes up every second. any way of editing the google ads on this site?

whats your av prog?

If you are using firefox install ---> Adblock Plus: Save your time and traffic and you wont see any more google ads

not using firefox, and my av program is irrellevant, there is infact a virus in the google ads i get on this sight at the moment, i was just wondering if there was a way to remove that ad

I too was having this problem last night. I have Kasperky Internet Security 2010 and just went to Online Activity and turned Anti-Banner on.

Seemed to have fixed the problem.

Not quite irrelevant... but try run a full scan with the free edition of this program. it will probably find it.

missing the point there a little, i don't have a virus on my computer... there is however a virus in the ad that my av program is blocking

I was just wondering if somebody else had the same ad, and the same virus blocked.

I will wait and see tomorrow, maybe the ad will be gone, then there should be no problem

Ok sorry misunderstood.. haven't seen it myself.

Probablly this ad above your OP:

Their kind of silly trick for computer noobs.

It very much is relevant what virus program you are using, as it is almost certainly a false positive result. If you tell us we can see if other users with the same program also get that result, or if something is wrong with the program itself.

the ad is now gone, as it is a rotating ad, and all problems are gone my av program is F-secure, but again has nothing to do with my question

"has anyone else the same problem?"

Had the same... problem. Kaspersky went berserk. All i did was to turn off that message and let him block that file/whatever it was.
Here's the screenshot:

I'll reiterate myself:

More like call google ads because they are the ones hosting the ad. VBulletin offers a way to run google ads through the forum and any problem you are seeing in those ads is because Google is hosting something sketchy (probably without knowing it).

well thanks guys, it seams two or three people had the same problem as me... so then i know it was a problem that happened to more people than myself and i will send a complaint to google ads to let them know what ads made the problem

thanks, you may now close this thread Mods
