Hi. I wanted to report that there is a trojan horse virus rotating through Bemanistyle's banner ads, specifically the "free ringtones" banner ads.
The one day I couldn't use Firefox on my computer, I used IE and when I visited this site, I got an error message from IE about a file with "access denied" then my virus scanner pops up saying I have a Trojan downloader on my computer.
I wanted to request that this ad be removed from rotation and that the admins possibly find a new ad company. Being a webmaster myself, I know that ad companies like this pay very little, and even if they remove one or two ads with a problem like this, there will most likely be more due to their poor screening. If you guys want some suggestions for companies, let me know because I know quite a few of them. | |

We've been in the process of looking for a new ad company. Thanks for reporting it, we'll get it removed.

Yeah sure, 
I (stupidly  ) downloaded the file. It didnt seem to do a lot after I ran it, but when I posted a reply in a thread this link appeared at the top of my posts too (I edited the URL out of the post afterwards.) (so users are NOT purposely putting this in their posts!!)
I started to get PC related problems when trying to delete the files it had planted in my sys32 folder.

Don't Spybot, NOD32 or any other related program detect them?
