Well, this is probably the very same virus that got on to all the other TF2 sites.
Like the other websites, go to task manager and check for loader.exe, that means you have virus.
I noticed it when i was going to the polycount web, good thing i has google chrome.
what?
People are saying that you can't get infected with chrome...

Google loader.exe, it might be a legitimate process for some things.
yea, read about this on steam forums.
Basically, [b]DON'T[/b] go to FPSbanana. It's said it got a "Black internet" thing virus. Open the task manager and check if you got several instances of iexplorer.exe running or 'loader.exe'.

For past 4 websites that were infected, the virus were using loader.exe as a disguise
As for chrome, it stops you from going to websites with malware.
Why are so many websites getting viruses now? I'm getting paranoid.
my god, i think this is just paranoia now. first a website that accepts ALL incoming ads without checking them, and now everyone thinks that TF2Items.com and the TF2 Wiki have it, now you're all saying Polycount has it? I don't believe that for a second. :colbert:

That. And tf2items doesn't even have ads, so I've got no idea how that rumour started.
This just in, mass hysteria started.
TF2items and polycount are clean.
No. Polycount has no Virus.
Since the newest FPSBanana incident suddenly everything has a Virus now.

Wait wait wait wait wait wait waaaaaiiiit, for some reason when i close a internet page the process usually keeps running, so i got plenty of iexplorer.exe's running, does that mean i have this virus or malware or spyware or whatever you guys are talking about?

Don't think so, but it does mean you should change browser. I'd recommend Chrome.

I'll try and use chrome, just set it as my default browser, might make use of it more often.
