Yes, I did, and uninstalled AVAST and it goes away!

right now avast appears to be the only service throwing a fit about our homepage. Perhaps there is something in the contents of the 3 new articles that went on the homepage today that Avast does not like?

What does Avast say when you click on CLICK HERE FOR MORE DETAILS ????

I get more false malware reports from these automatic checkers than I do real malware. Quite often a pattern in data will match a pattern found in some malware instructions by pure coincidence.

avast is not the greatest security when doing anything controversial.
None are really! Update often, scan often, and stay alert!
And know what your MACHINE is running......Don't know? End it!
