Default Trojan Horse

It seems I can't click on any link on RCU without my virus software detecting a Trojan Horse. Anybody else?

Do you mean there are no security issues with a MAC!!?? Weren't there 131 security fixes that were released quietly for MACs a couple or so months ago?

Was there really??? I didnt know that..Not a huge computer techy, but I thought there were no viruses for Macs?? I have had my Macbook pro since 2005 and the only problem I ever had was changing the battery..once, last week!!! And I scour the internet, every night...My brother has been through at least 3 PC laptops since then

Uh huh . . and Futabas never have lock-outs and Jet Cat engines always start.

Gotta love good marketing and fanboys.

If your using avast just update it and it will go away. At least that is what worked for me.

DOn't be hatin' on Macs. Far FAR less prone to the virus issues that you PC users encounter.
And, ALL the best stuff you lay your eyes on was created on a mac :-)

Avast is what I have. Updated it last night and it did go away. Back again earlier tonight, but all seems clear now.

Yes Marty, and far hotter than the women you can create on a PC.
They'll both be hot, but the Mac created version will treat you better :-)

The forums need a shot of penicilin. Someone has been with a dirty *****.

That's funny, the system will let viruses through and infect everyone's computer but it automatically bleep'd a semi-dirty word.

I run the latest Nortons on my Mac and PC........it automatically quarantines the Trojan in the background, sparing me the hassle of dealing with it every time I change a page. Once a day, I run a Gutman 32-pass wipe of the quarantined files to permanently wash them from the disc.

I had the problem also. I would get warning every page I went to. Updated AVAST and no problems.

I have updated my Avast and am still getting the warning. I'm staying off until they fix it.
