I use Kaspersky too.. and after this issue i had a hard time uploading my scheduled updates took me 3X to do it
 
Here is my Norton Antivirus info for it. I have an bookmark to an old "Show All Posts" search for my profile. Since it is a bookmark to an old search it always comes back blank. I clicked on it today to go to BYC and got the virus alert. The only thing on the page really was two banner ads. I don't know which ones though.
