1. Your PC is now infected and has been recruited into a botnet.
2. Your website is infecting other PCs every time one visits it.
3. Your PC is now being used by a - probably criminal - gang.
4. The hard one - you know about it, so you are responsible.
In essence, this means fix the website, or you could be sued. Clean
your PC, or you could be sued. Report the hacking to your hosting
provider, or you could be sued. Report it to your local or national
police, or - worst of all - you could be charged as an accessory to
the criminal activity probably now going on with your PC and with all
your website visitors. Yes, this is serious. You need to deal with it."

What's the story with Captain's video links? Can anyone confirm that it has been hacked and what's it downloading? Does it affect only Windows users, or are Linux and Mac people vulnerable as well? Sod's law...I had just clicked the link and started to listen to the videos whilst cathing-up with reading threads here
