Default AVG has started blocking this site

I have avg anti-virus installed on my desktop machine, and since this afternoon I can no longer access this site, it says there's an exploit. it was absolutely fine this morning.

Is this just happening to me?

Kapersky 2010 too. Need to check the site over, but it could be false positive. I am posting from my iPhone until this is sorted.

Failing that I'll post from a virtual machine running security essentials. Shame I can't log into work and get the proxy server to check out the site. Good ole finjan

Might be worth contacting a mod, someone might have stuck some dodgy script on it for spamming purposes.

Dont disable your virus checkers, or whats the point in having them?

I've had version 9 for a couple of weeks, since I installed windows 7.

could be one of the adverts.. I repaired a forum a while back which had a similar issues, turned out to be a dodgy affiliate. So I'd keep your virus scanners online just to be safe.

I was locked out with AVG too, I would rather get a false positive though, than a deff site!!
