For 2 days now my antivirus program (AVG) recognises some virus on mmorpg.com . All I can say it is labeled as “top[1].htm” May be it is false alarm, but so far I cannot read the site without multiple warnings coming out.
Comments
using avg as well and not getting any warnings
Sorry for my english
Probably a word or phrase that got picked-up in an ad (that's my guess anyway), I'm not getting any kind of errors or warnings.
View the source for the site and locate any reference to that page...if you can.
And what are these ads of which you people speak?
I miss the MMORPG genre. Will a developer ever make one again?
Explorer: 87%, Killer: 67%, Achiever: 27%, Socializer: 20%
My avast is picking up a threat as well.
This started today, nothing was picked up before today.
Info from avast:

only one thing on this site that might trigger this1its the new ads of gold seller!never had those before!so if you see the gold seller ads scan it for fun probably where your issue is!gold seller are renoun for their shady practice!
Wasn't doing it late last night, but I'm now getting a warning from Kaspersky on every page here, with no other tabs open, sometimes twice from pages. Identifies as a generic exploit script.

mmorpg staff you should really check your code !!
My AVG picked up 2 as well. It is set to auto delete though so it didnt get vaulted
My AVG picked up the same thing today. Looks like it was a bad ad in the top banner that caused the flag to go off.
There are 3 types of people in the world.
1.) Those who make things happen
2.) Those who watch things happen
3.) And those who wonder "What the %#*& just happened?!"
I'm getting threats when I try to view blogs, too.
I've gotten these warnings every time I try to view an official blog entry on the site, so it's worth looking into.
mm they might have to remove all ads and scan them all !so this is proabably why we get issue trying to access this page then!i do hope mmorpg crew verify and correct this this !

SWG: Astromechs & Friday Features and Guides from SWG O-forums (2003-2005) (Read last post first for clarity)
Hello all,
Yes over the past couple days I've been fighting a script that was intermittently attempting to serve a trojan to our users of our servers. We've been clean for a while now but I am still watching this very closely and will continue to do so. The reported attack site pages you are seeing come from stopbadware.org which work with Google, FireFox and other companies to help inform users of potential problems out there on the web. Once I am sure that we are free of these issues I will submit to have those urls removed from their blacklist.
I'm sorry for the inconvenience this has caused anyone. I'd also like to emphasize how important it is that people have an anti virus program installed on their computers as these types of scripting attacks have increased in size across the internet monumentally.
If anyone get's anymore alerts from their virus scanners from MMORPG.com please email me at ben @ mmorpg.com with the page you got it on and I will investigate.

Ive been using adblocker and havnt gotten any of these messages yet, so I would recommend everyone enables it.
My Guild Wars 2 Vids
My Kaspersky was yelling at me for the same exact thing/IP yesterday. Happened everywhere on MMORPG.com everytime.
EDIT: Thanks, Meddle. I'd like to add that I was getting alerts from Kasper even while using Kasper's ad-blocker, so don't rely just on ad-blockers because if they were anything but ad-blockers, they'd be called anti-virus :-) Use a good AV program all the time (internet condom!).
Computers of those who do not use any of the AV protection most likely got infected with trojan?
It's possible if you're using Internet Explorer. Most newer browsers like Google Chrome and FireFox block these kinds of requests from the client. In this day and age these kind of assaults on websites are very common and to protect yourself purchase and install an anti virus solution. Kapersky detected these issues throughout the process while I was fighting it.
