Hi, since yesterday I get randomly appearing warnings from my antivirus software kaspersky during browsing this site. It says there is a phishing address around. I included the address for security reasons in a spoiler, but I havent been able to locate the source.

Code:
http://www.hostmonster.com/cgi/suspended

Maybe my antivirus is just f*cking with me, but maybe not. I thought it is a good idea to let everyone know.

Well it seems that a gbatemp member put the address on his/her signature on purpose.

Am I correct in thinking that this is one of the threads where the problem link has been detected?
http://gbatemp.net/index.php?showtopic=261190&hl=

Doing a search of the URL you provided came up with that thread a number of times

I still get the warning for example on this thread: http://gbatemp.net/t261184-golden-sun-dark...meplay-trailers PAGE 1 and PAGE 3

EDIT: I think I have located the source. It seems to be the gbatemp user SignZ. I get on every thread he posted a warning from my antivirus.

are you still getting this problem?

SignZ's signature is this:
Code:
[url="http://shoptemp.com/?ref=2325"][img]http://shoptemp.com/images/st.gif[/img][/url][b][color="#008000"][i]Thou shalt not ignore God'z SignZ[/i][/color][/b]
[img]http://gamenow.asia/card/SignZ.png[/img]

i don't see any problem with it...

edit: the gamenow.asia picture is faulty. I'll remove it.

I see, so it was my signature... Well, sorry that I didn't remove my Menudo gamercard link while gamenow.asia is down, but who should/could know that some AV doesn't like it.

But, well, sorry for the inconvenience(?)..
