I tried to access the Field of Glory website and each time I got a virus alert from my virus software. Has anyone else experienced this problem?

It seems to be a malicious http code. I use kapersky antivirus and it detects it when loading the website. I wonder if FoG know about it.
Exploit.VBS.Phel.cz

These utilities are designed to penetrate remote computers in order to use them as zombies (by using backdoors) or to download other malicious programs to victim machines.

Exploits use vulnerabilities in operating systems and applications to achieve the same result.

I access the FoG web site frequently, my computer is loaded with the latest McAfee anti-virus software, and I have never experienced this problem. Could your anti-virus software be reacting to the Flash components on the web site?

Cheers,
Scott

An update from the FoG discussion forum:

"Just to let you know that we had a bit of an emergency on the Field of Glory web site. It was attacked by a hacker on the 5th March. Some of you may have received a virus warning message when you tried to log on."

Apparently, no damage was done, and the FoG team are currently tracing the hacker. Full discussion thread here: link

Cheers,
Scott
