Some of my users who use Norton (yuck) have been alerting me to a security warning they're getting, something about a "drive-by download" -- I'm not getting any warnings from Windows Security Essentials, nor at quick glance do I notice anything fishy in the file mentioned:

Threat Name: [b]MSIE ADODB.Stream Object File Installation Weakness[/b]

Location: http://www.gangsterbb.net/threads/ubbthreads.php

It seems, at the link above, keeping atop Windows Update should fix this issue on the users' side, but what could be causing this to begin with?


GangsterBB.NET (Ver. 7.6.1.1)
PHP Version 5.6.40 / MySQL 5.7.23-23 (was 5.6.41-84.1) / Apache 2.4.54
