trojan.giframe on CGarchitect in 2006salary[1].gif

[3danim8d]

Good morning,

 

As soon as I browsed to CGarchitect today, Symantec AV alerted me that the virus Trojan.Giframe was in 2006salary[1].gif.

 

 

Please look into this.

 

 

Thanks,

It's a false positive

Jeff,

 

Thanks, it was odd, I had never gotten that error and I hit CGA everyday.

 

I didn't get the error just now, I just wanted to be safe.

I am almost 100% certain it was a result of the GIF image being served through an IFRAME. I changed the image to a JPG so that it would not trigger the warning. To be safe the server was scanned, the GIF was scanned, I checked the source code file, the view source from IE and FF and also did a Trojan scan on my own workstation. None of it resulted in anything malicious. A few months ago when this was first reported our webhost did an extensive scan of the server and also found nothing. Unless someone can prove to me otherwise, I'm calling this a false positive.
