I keep getting trojans from this website now. I have never gotten one before but my computer detects viruses right away and cleans them in like 20 seconds which is so good, but now the virus has stopped but i'm still worried it might still be here.

I've not gotten any warnings. What Protector and Browser do you use? For the Record, I myself, us FireFox3 and AVG. Most likely it is what it has been for the last year, and just an exploit through the ads and nothing to really worry about. Just make sure your browser and protector are up to date.

I saw a warning on a Norton enabled system the other day.
It turned out to be one of those "I'm trying to justify my existence/price by bringing to your attention a possibly abusable HTML/Java exploit that's only pertinent if you haven't updated your system in the last 2 years and has in fact become standard practice in advertisements over the last year" reports upon inspection.

I use everything...almost...FF2, FF3, IE7, IE8, and Opera...
Anyway, as Kanna said, it's an exploit that there's nothing to worry about.

I use the latest firefox, i have no real virus scan, just a system purge every month for windows files, and during that a full-sweep of data i don't format, which comes out clean each time, only Window files get infected it seems, games, music and the lot have always been free.
Anyways, your not the first one, several topics are made on GameAmp regarding Trojans, ''this is an unsafe website'' from google, to browser attacks.

It's because the ad's must contain some line of code that looks threatening to the site, actually if you save a "Webpage COmplete" From firefox, in the File, Save As menu, like if you wanted to save the pege and its files, sometimes it says "Exploit Real Play Removed" in my McAffe Firewall/Scanner or whatever.

Hate to tell ya but, if you give IE the boot and get Firefox, latest version you won't have half the problems on FF, you do with IE.

Yea Internet Explorer is not all that great ESPECIALLY if you compare it to Firefox. Firefox is safer, efficient, and WAYY customizable then IE. Try Firefox some thime and I think it wont be as bad as IE.

I am a recently converted FF user, and that is all i will use now. No issues what so ever with it.
Well I wish I had a nickel, For every time I fell and blamed somebody else
I'd give a ton of money to the ones I’ve hurt, And I’d still be sittin' pretty well
I've spent years losin' touch of what's right and what's real Caught up in these missions of my own
And you're tellin' me you think I’ve done so damn well While we're sittin' here a thousand miles from home
There's a hole in your wisdom, a hole in your sky
Two holes in your head where the light's supposed to get by

Hummmm.... odd and it's is something for the SM to go after; Gameamp is (again) listed as possible harmful site. I have (in my SM days) been busy for 1 month with google (and thus FF since they are joint) to get gameamp off that list. Gameamp was deemed safe again for some time. I'm not sure what happened in the past year since i left staff and became kinda inactive; but it seems that google deems gameamp to be (again) harmful.
The warning applies for all gameamp sites :S
Using FF does make browsing here safe since it has a better protection system then IE; but i wouldn't recommend doing so without a virusscanner.
necromancer all the way

Well i have this windows live one care that my dad uses and it like updates my comp every day scans it every day (full scan) and it pre detects harmfull stuff on websites and cleans them automautically. The only reason i put this thread up was because the virus appeared 4 times over the past couple of days i was browsing in this website.

Yea, I was in contact with Google alot during my SM time. I managed to get it off the list for a few weeks. But as long as that code is within the ads that is on this site, black listed, she will be.
