Default RE: Trojan Warning

So, you said that your friends are seeing these warnings but you are not?

Are you by any chance running ads from an ad network, such as Google Adwords or DoubleClick on your site? If it appears for some people but not for others it may be a "malvertisement" running through your ad network. This can happen if an ad network you are using runs a malicious .swf flash based ad on the network. Usually these are hard to track as they are sometimes designed to show the true content, in this case the trojan warning, only if the user is from a certain country or IP address range.

If that's not the case, then is the forum software provided by HostGator up to date? Sometimes those installs from the hosts are a few version numbers behind what they should be.
