Alright, this has been happening since last night but I didn't want to say anything till all my scans and checks cleared my computer or another site first but now that I'm up and all is well with my computer and I tested UM again right now... I'm being hit with trojans from the UM site and earlier today it was pop up windows.
9 virus detections in the last hour just from AVG.
I've got some screen shots to show the off-site it's being loaded from and a couple shots of AVG detecting the virus with the name.

I've got the same problem. I started a thread in here about it just a bit ago. Take some screen shots to help Saruman and update your virus programs.

If you have received an e-mail from this web site please delete it.
I can confirm that this site has been hacked, someone is using it to mail out some form of spam.
This is going to take some sorting out.

Getting the same thing. Sophos going off about trojans. Took about 5 min to load up this page to the point I could type this.
Not having this problem on any other site. Java keeps loading up and wants me to input some script or something when I load UM.

Well...I'm leaving until this gets sorted out. This might explain a LOT of problems with my computer.

I got a nasty virus, too!
I was about to throw this old computer into the trash!

Disabled Java and now it loads faster.
Viruses were in temp .htm files. None of them look very bad... just totally annoying...

The 'virus' that someone had implanted in our forum skin has now been removed. I'm doing my best to get to the bottom of this, and can only apologise profusely for any problems this may have caused.

Tell that to someone like me who is a computer idiot. It took me forever to figure out.

Use your virus program to catch them. If you don't have one, you can get a free verison of AVG off the net.

If you have Firefox on your computer, you can use that until the problem is solved.
That's what I'm using right now and it seems to be working just fine.

Its seems much better now...My Norton and Webroot stopped the virus and deleted it.
There WAS a person posting suspicious links in a welcome thread yesterday...

My cpu just crashed again as i was attempting to log on. And again my antivirus detected 11 infected files. Everytime I log on I get several infected files.
When i go to other sites my cpu is fine. I hope I'm not the only one.

Damn, I opened it (looks at website) Does your usually say website is not responding, because fi it does then Im screw if it dosent, well then I guess I got lucky. I do so hope that this get fixed, and if their is anyway I can help (although I doubt that) I would glad ot be of service. I heard of this virus though, it's kinda like that IM virus that was going around, you know the one that wuld send it too all of your firends. I cant believe someoen would hack this site though, it seems so horrible.

The issue has fortunately been resolved. Someone hacked the site through a vunerability in the security of the site and attached a virus to it, along with sending out these emails.
Do not open these emails, delete them immediately.Saruman has pinned a topic regarding the malicious acts,
