TMB Site Warning

[Waxing_Gibbous (Peter)]

Just dropped by the TMB site to see if anything had changed. It has. Its gone and loaded some kind of Spyware which AVG blocked with alacrity and warned me never to go there again.
Anybody know anything about this?

No warnings from MaCafee Site Advisor....
I presume its http://www.tmboptical.com/itemsGrid.asp?cat_id=10 ?

I don't get anything at the tmboptical website. It could be a false positive?

At the time that I tried this site, Norton’s reported it as a safe site.

Avast anti virus giving false positives, again. See here.

this is not the 1st time they have problems like this in the last month...must have a newbie programmer.

I had some recent problems with sites found by a google search, if you found the TMB site through a google search you may have arrived the same way. I merely googled for "Turkey cooked on rotisserie", many of the sites that came up tried to install a trojan via a third party site, using Bing for search resulted in no problems.

Hi,

Microsoft Security Essentials passes it OK.

Google search also tends to report sites as trying to install trojans quite a while after the problem is gone.

And doesn't take into account the O/S and hardware you are running on. Windows binaries infecting AIX/Linux/Solaris?

I thought it odd as I visited <2 weeks ago and nothing was amiss. Usually AVG is pretty good, it jibes nicely with my wife's corporate "Deathware" when it comes to threats. I'll check it with hers.
