Guys,
An important message to anyone who uses the javelin discussion forum II. Please note that I do not mean the worldjavelin forum run by Tom Pukstys.
I recently visited this site and my computer consequently received a virus and I have lost all of the files and software that I update this website with. Although that is not a big problem as I can add new information in anyway, I just thought I'd warn you, particularly if you look at it from a work computer as it is the source of a lot of potentially big prioblems according to my IT dept.

Apparently it is most likely to have come from one of the pop-ups that appear when the page is loading. I must have somehow clicked "yes", "OK" or opened something that I was trying to close. From there it changed my homepage to something odd and it started installing things after that, so I'd say be very wary of the popups and maybe close them from the taskbar rather than clicking on them at all and if your homepage changes then it may have got you!
