So when I go to www.koreabeat.com firefox says that it has a virus. Does anyone know what the story is? Koreabeat is great, its some guy who translates korean articles into English?
EDIT: removed comma

My Firefox says it is a reported Attack site and has been blocked as per my security preferences. I'm not sure why but I've tried to e-mail them about it. Waiting to hear back.(From Koreabeat, not Firefox) |

If you take the comma out of the link it works. |

Avast AV scanner reports "VBS:Malware-gen" type malware trying to load when accessing the website. Naughty...
Edit: After a quick google it appears to be a false positive in particular with Avast and Firefox 3. Same thing happens on Yahoo sites. There also appear to be updates/patches available or on the way to fix this. |

The website says they've been dealing with a virus of some sorts, not much detail. |
