My AV just belted out a loud siren noise, and pointed out the possibility of a worm present when I viewed the AGen topic by dopeman in the Announcements forum. Might want to find out what's going on there to see if it's a false positive, or if something fishy really is there.

Seems legit to me; anyone else have issues?

Sorry, apparently the Avast guys flubbed and somehow they made Avast think that all PHPBB threads were infected with a worm. Apparently I got the bad update while I was viewing the forums, right when I looked at that particular thread. I found out about the mistake thanks to Google. Of course, with Avast preventing me from loading the "infected" pages, I couldn't reply to this message after I'd discovered the mistake. Sorry!
