I got a virus alert from this site. JS/Downloader-AUD

http://vil.nai.com/vil/content/v_139961.htm McAfee details on this.

It maybe a mistake. The company I work for will block my access to your site for stuff like this. I really would not like that.

well we dont see that or get any error,im using norton.
this was mentioned here a week ago....about the same site but we dont see anything,besides the useless encrypted part on the site.

Looks like what they are using is some Javascript that tries to encrypt the source code.
This works fine in Firefox, but Internet Explorer seems to die on it. I can confirm that McAfee returns this virus error

yeah but its fake....
i get a similar error if i unpack the the killer templates for sentinel..
norton will trash that...but infact there's nothing wrong...

This seems to be happening a lot with McAfee, I made a similar post for a different site. See [ Only registered users can see links on this board! Get registered or login! ]

I installed McAfee Siteadvisor and submitted the site for evaluation and it came back that it was clean. So it's obviously McAfee being over cautious!

McAfee SiteAdvisor says the site is OK.

It must be the encryption that is triggering McAfee.

Actually thinking about it, as Nuke is GNU GPL you're not allowed to encrypt the code, are you?!?!

Yes you can encrypt it but you can not resell or offer code for free that is encrypted.

Thanks for that Guardian. Still getting to grips with the GNU GPL conditions. Shocked

Actually, I think if it is GPL, you can encrpt it, but if someone asks you for the unencrypted source code, you MUST provide it. Therefore, what is the point?
