Quote - No problem here, just a rather bothersome TurboUpload site with lots of clicking and things to do before you get to the download and then it runs a PartyPoker thing underneath which is what McAffee was likely objecting to...ran a scan and no Trojans here.. ...

Hmmm… Well my copy of McAfee flagged it 4X times as though something was being forced on my system and I did lose control of my browser momentarily after clicking through at that site. FYI: I'm running Opera 9.1, and IE6.0 which wasn't running at the time (IE7 breaks several of my older programs). Hopefully that info will helps someone figure out what happened when I tried to download from that site. Just so I make myself clear it was durring all of the clicking that this happened, they might be hosting some bad adds...
