    Wouldn't you need to download a file to have the trojan hidden inside it, hints the name? Seems odd.

    just to add to this , My computer at work DID get a virus from this site 100%. My home computer has picked up warnings from here before but my work one has way more security and usually stops it . This site is addicting so i keep coming here regardless of the outcome. Except at work.

    A while back there were problems with GoogleAds that contained some questionable ads that may have slipped under Google's radar. I discussed this in length with Google and they assured me the problem was corrected and proper measures were put in place to ensure nothing like that happened again. That being said, the GoogleAds issue was much bigger than VinylNation and could affect any website running GoogleAds, which these days is MOST.

    Ever since, I have been doing checks twice a week to make sure nothing harmful is on the website. I have not found anything since. I also had our Host check the security and they said everything was fine.

    It is safe to assume that it was an isolated incident with GoogleAds and shouldn't be a problem.
