I guess it's a problem coming from within the browsershots.org computer. I have NOD32 running on my own computer w/ the latest signatures, and nothing seems to be problematic. (Speaking of Gentoo, I'm waiting for 2008.0 to come out of beta and install it on my Thinkpad T61 -- fun fun fun!) Heike, Jumper: thanks for the suggestions.

At first I thought it may have come from your blog but that doesn't appear to be the case. I would recommend looking through the thread that Heike sent for bleeping computer. I would also suggesting using two or more online virus scanners. Most of the rootkit detection tools are free. If you don't have any luck, install Gentoo or OpenBSD. Hi Eastwood,

Eastwood,

This obviously falls in Jumper’s area of expertise but I did find this from Bleeping Computer that might help.

It says "a virus was found" when I took a screenie of my blog with ie 8 on windows. http://browsershots.org/screenshots/676dc6b0c21fed25e2d2b3fb5a25f2e7/ Hey heike, jumper, I need a bit of a favour: any idea what this is about?
