Problem....

When I click on Play force one, I get a warning window telling me the site might harm my computer and warning me of malware associated with www.add-pay.ru.

If it helps, I am browsing with Chrome with McAfee supposedly looking after me. The warning window isn't obviously associated with either.

My Kaspersky said firefox was downloading a trojan. The report said it was denied and after doing a full scan every thing was ok.

That add-pay dot ru site (www omited to deny the malwarers a free link) ;-) is indeed a malware. I tried the link and I was treated to a rather convincing page of a virus scan examining my PC... but for the fact that I run a Mac :-D then several programs called setup.exe tried to install. Bonus point for the "risk of system crash" bogus threat if you try to exit the page.

But I don't think it's malware from Play Force One. More a matter of malwaring sites runing scrïpts trhouh paid ads in legit, unsuspecting sites. Which are, let me tell you, a plague.

Leonizer, please, if you read this, could you take apropiate action? (Better if it involves explosions and stuff. Even respectable fairies love big explosions. If not possible, I would setle for you removing that fake ad - is someone trying to scam you instead of a legit ad, after all).

Hmm, I use Kaspersky 2k9 (with updated virus data base).
I've tested my site on 4 different browsers (Maxton, Chrome, Firefox, Opera) and I don't get any warnings.

Could you please specify the problem (best by a PM).

Thanks

one antivirus may not be able to detect viruses no matter how recent their virus definition is.
I use norton internet security and with latest definition i did not either get anything, and norton site safety report is clean too,
This could be some virus hijacking the browser.
