I thought Sera pulled that thread. She sent me a message this morning about it. I hope it wasn't the link I provided but I pulled it from work and we have a pretty good filter there.

I didn't open the thread, so I have no idea what the link is, but the thread still shows up in my sub'd list, so it's still there.

I know Sera said she was working on it and to avoid it.

Antenna is known to house viruses but not due to their own staff, but simply the Flash ads they run on their site. My company is partnered with "top internet-security company" (can't name them publicly) and this site is a known hole.

If there is a way to block all links to that site, displayed on this site, that would fix the issue. Luckily Google Chrome and Firefox will prompt you before letting you into the site. Also Microsoft Security Essentials will prompt you if using IE.

Best of luck guys.

I saw this yesterday. If the admins/staff are watching this, just delete post #1627199 permanently and it should be fine. Its just an image posted here, which is hosted on an insecure server. Nothing sinister.
