Kaspersky keeps giving me virus alerts every time I switch boards or refresh the page of the board I'm on. Says it's coming from the ads on each page.

I copied the details from Kaspersky, but the string is long as frick. Still, I can post it if that helps.

Looks like this may be a Kaspersky problem. I just read an article from 2010 where a Kaspersky update blocked all Google ads (false positives). I'm getting them not just on TD, but other regular everyday sites too.

Irony: I went to Kaspersky.com. I got a virus warning from Kaspersky on its own website because of the ads.

I'm sure if this is happening to a lot of people, that has to affect ad revenue on TD, right?

I get a warning from my anti-virus (McAfee) almost daily when I'm on TD. To protect myself, I've started wearing a condom when I post....

I'm getting the same message from Kaspersky. Just started yesterday though. Says it's inactive.
