My first malware detection by Avast!
2008-10-25 7:49:55 PM 1224917395 SYSTEM 1212 Sign of “SWF:CVE-2007-0071 [Expl]” has been found in “hxxp://www.game-advertising-online.com/b/hc/fs2.swf?clickTAG=http://www.game-advertising-online.com/index.php%3Fsection=redir%26zon=265%26zid=48a398b1e090f” file.
Aborted connection and put game-advertising-online in my hosts file and restricted sites.
Just a heads-up if anyone cares to check if it is a FP.
Please disable the link by changing it to hxxp.
LinkScanner found no exploits with this site, so it’s an FP.
Unable to replicate. Flash file downloaded not reported as exploited.
It appears to be a vulnerability for those who have earlier versions of Flash Player.

Have you updated to Flash Player 10, a4nic8er? If not, you need to get the latest version here.
Yes I have (on my main computers), thanks. I discovered the link when I fired up my old Win98SE/Tbird 1200 which I do every few months just to see what may be out there for the unprotected and unwary.
