Two days ago, after rebooting my computer I restarted my browser. When
I selected to restore my last session I got a page telling me that I shouldn't
access www.crossfireforum.org as it was listed in an AV registry as having
been found to be virus laden. I logged on anyway and have noted no virii
infecting my system.

BTW, just for the info, I use WebRoot as my AV software and keep it up to
date. Also, I usually don't worry about viruses as I rarely use Windows as
my OS (Machine is dual boot so I can play Windows based games). Usually,
I'm booted up using FedoraCore (Linux). But lately I've been playing with
Windows 7.

Just a little advice from someone who works in the industry and has to deal
with Virii on a regular basis (I design systems to support a major ISP's consumer email platform). If you keep your AV software up to date (both
code and virii sig lists), and you are careful about opening email
attachments as well as using the higher security settings available for your
OS, you should be OK. As someone else said, don't download/install
ActiveX controls from any website that you do not explicitly trust to be
safe and please send a report of the infection to the administrators of any
site you suspect of having either infected your computer or for which you
have received a warning from your AV software.

It is a jungle out there, but you can still walk the trails safely if you are
observant.
