The next day when AVG did a scan it picked a "HTML/Framer" as a threat, I think that this was in the temporary internet files again and I cleared them again. AVG has never found anything before and it seems ok now?. I do not undrestand the Russian hacking business and I would be very pleased if one of you brainier ones could put my mind at rest! Thanks again to all of you for the tremendous effort that you are all putting in to this fight.

Hi Dave

When did this happen was it the first time that the website was hacked or is it now since?

Clear tempory files and make sure the recycle bin is empty reboot and run AV again without connecting to the internet first.

This isnt a virus or trojan as such it is an HTML exploit similar to what Phorm plan to use on people no doubt to use their cookies...
