Smash,
Just to let you know my virus scan detected this virus on the coolster website:
Virus Name: VBS.MS06-014!exploit
I'm running firefox. That particular warning isn't necessarily a virus, it's just saying that it uses code that code possibly cause your computer to do unwanted things. Tech jargon for those interested below......
This does not necessarily mean that a virus has been found. It merely means that Visual Basic code was found which attempts to activate additional executable code without the user's express permission. This exploit can be used in a malicious web page or inside e-mail messages to execute code of the attacker's choice on the user's machine. Users of Internet Explorer and applications such as Outlook or Outlook Express that employs Internet Explorer to render HTML content are vulnerable to this exploit.
