I am still getting attacks, reports & Blocks from Kaspersky, and my media player is still popping up with malware attacks. NOTHING has changed & NOTHING is fixed yet. so just keep blocking YOUR computer from these attacks until Eccie fixes it, with your anti-virus software. It APPEARS that everytime you Log in, change threads, surf, or refresh is when these attacks occur. CHAT Appears to be unaffected as far as i can tell.

As a professional software engineer, I TOTALLY disagree. In times of attack such as these, it is important that people are reporting what they are seeing in
real time. If they are getting errors they should log what errors they are getting in the thread.
If they stop getting errors for a period of two hours, it is
just as important
that they report that it seems fixed. This is an indicator of whether or not current steps to erradicate the virus have been effective.
That is not what Mokoa said at all. Google is not going to run scan after scan against eccie after each cleaning attempt. Eccie is attempting to remove the virus(es) once they are pretty sure they have (in part based on
our feedback),
then they will have Google scan and re-certify eccie.
Mokoa is simply talking about the "attack site" tagging that Firefox and other browsers/AV use (via Google's registry of known virus delivering sites)
To everyone who is contributing, Thanks! Please keep posting NEW info as it occurs (and yes, please specify your windows/mac/linux/unix, Browser (Firefox, Internet Explorer, Google Chrome), and your Antivirus brand - any specific messages (insights) they are providing that haven't already been posted.
Totally NOT cool attacking eccie. Instead of spreading viruses, some people just need to get laid! Then they wouldn't be so p*ssed off at the world!
