Re: Blackhole Exploit Kit Detection
Not sure on this one - not something I've heard others experiencing before. Can you grab a screenshot?

Another AVG false positive caused by the use of Javascript somewhere I would imagine! However, it's actually a serious issue at the moment, and it relies on the end-user running an outdated version of their browser, outdated plugins or an outdated version of Flash or Java.
Suggest you go about updating everything, start with your browser, then any and all plugins you use, then Flash and Java. Once you've done that, run Malwarebytes Free and Spyboy Search & Destroy to ensure there isn't any malware knocking about on your PC. After that, you can run AVG to check for anything else.

Thanks Mr ChrisGlobe, must of been a false positive , updated everything and it went away !
It was strange that it only happened on FC , and not CA , as similar websites ?
I had a similar thing happen with a different website , and it wasnt just me experiencing it, and it was the google link that was infected .
sorry for the fuss
cheers

Trouble!
To enter FighterControl I had to ignore this warning:
Visiting fightercontrol.co.uk may harm your computer. Yandex has detected malware on this site that may harm your computer or gain access to your personal information.
Malware: contains Mal/Iframe-AL (data provided by Sophos). It's a trojan.

MalwarBytes and Avira don't find anything. Could be a false positive.
