I received a pm from a member this morning complaining about the same issue on another thread in General.

The matter is receiving our attention and we'll update you as soon as possible.

Thanks Lenny Zero, this should be resolved now.

Just to let people know, again, this as an issue with a link in a user's signature that was falsely reporting positive for malware. We have removed that signature until this they resolve the issue with that website, the thread in question and the rest of the forum should work normally for all users again.

If you see any further problems let us know.
