That last site set off my anti-virus as a trojan… be warned.

I’m running MS Security Essentials and the definitions are updated. I didn’t get a warning.

It was my Avast that went off and I have no idea what kind, it said a trojan, I deleted it and moved on. I was at home then, at work now.

No problem! I wasn’t insinuating that you knew it was a trojan, I hope you know that, just wanted to pass it along!

We’re good.

I knew you were being helpful and I appreciate it, as I’m quite certain everyone else does. FWIW I did a complete sweep of my machine and got nothing. I can only hope between my MSE software and the NoScript add-on I have in FireFox (mostly this as I didn’t even get a warning) I managed to duck the bullet.
