Hi Guys,

 

Norton is telling me that my computer is being attacked multiple times from arbtalk sites, aps etc with a

 

webattack; exploit toolkit website 4

 

 

Mods may want to check this?

 

Be safe people

 

Not visited site for a few days, but been getting similar ever since came on earlier today. Does'nt seem to do anything sinister but does cause system to slow down a little.

 

Old windows PC, running XP & protected by Kapersky. Only seems to affect Arbtalk. No updates or changes made to system or software since I last visited!

 

Seems to be some dodgy Java gif thats giving the problem. This is what Kapersky is telling me:-

 

Object: Google

Event: Detected: HEUR:Exploit.Java.CVE-2013-0422.gen

 

Had 30 of these in last 45 mins. If you follow the link it just takes you to the Google search engine page?

I`ve got a out of date norton, licence expired on here, arbtalk is running slower and I get a message when I first log on or change forums, or back to index saying some thing like "a problem with this site is causing it to close page and reopen".

Cant get it to come up now I wanted to quote it!

Seems to be OK on all other sites and forums, I`ve visted this evening.
