Hello Roy, good afternoon.

I've just read that file and my antivirus (AVIRA) find everything is OK.
Perhaps protection software in your machine has registered that file as a menace. If so, perhaps you have to remove references to that file in your protection software (antivirus?).

Hope this helps.

Go here:

Save you a load of hassle.

Having had a quick look it appears they are having issues with the whole site.

Ran my own malware with no problems, loaded the link into the link supplied and if I read it correctly it is not malicious just bloody annoying.

I clicked on this thread and got an ominous message that the website was experiencing problems… fortunately they appear to have been transient.

Roy,

Go to theactlive protection section, click on web protection and unclick Mal URL, it seems to have stopped since I did it.
