Hey there.

Has anybody experienced a virus from any of the sites that Yarold's supports for clicking? I use Internet Explorer, and I've recently come into contact with a virus (Trojan) that I cannot get rid of, and trust me, I've tried. I keep getting a pop-up link to Fallen Sword, which I can't remember clicking on while I've been clicking here, but I can't remember for sure either way.

The problem has been fairly recent - and I'm afraid that it might have been caused by Proveste de Cartier (which usually throws up at least one pop-up and some that IE blocks), or My SchaamHar. If anybody else has come into contact with a Trojan like this, or has any helpful advice on how to get rid of the little bugger once and for all, it would be deeply appreciated.

Thanks!

I had similar problem yesterday, during happy hour one of the Shamhaar links was causing problems, I couldn't close it in any way. Pop up window was showing up with strange message " abt running" I have tried everything to close that link, nothing worked so I had to restart my computer. Before that i had some attack attempts notices. Just in case i ran norton scan, and one trojan was found -"infostealer.bancos":( Im pretty sure it was from one of yarolds exchange links because two days earlier my scan was clear...I was lucky and was able to get rid off it...

Yeah, I think the site Whimpsters got a virus lately. There is a topic about it on their forum. The virus somehow got into the site and is giving itself to other users. If your virus is Vundo, it's probably from Whimpsters. But I think they fixed it.

I received the spyware program "Spyware Guard 2008" from some link yesterday while clicking. That was a nasty one to get rid of, but I finally did! Be careful!

Some of the links seem to be popping up dexonline pages with the link and my zip code already filled in is this a virus?

I've had about five of six warnings at least from MMC links saying they contain viruses.
