Default Trojan's on GunzFactor?

well, I turned on my PC, and the first place I came to, was here.
I immediatly get a Norton popup saying Trojan.Download high risk, could not gain accesss to file.
Then I got a few more, until it was blocked.
so, what the hell is going on?
GunzFactor owners are trying to trojan us?
WTF..

1: Norton sucks
2: You may have other spyware/malware.
3: It may be programmed to read a popup as a threat and give you some warning. (Then it really sucks.)

GunZFactor wouldn't get away with virusing everyone, and I doubt Citizen would want to do that.

Unless you have "crucial" information (Credit card numbers, online banking, crap like that)
Then go ahead and click "Uninstalled" on norton.

(Unless you're primitive and type porn in Google, and surf through 1000's of popups too find some picture you like. or something. fr33k.)


EDIT: I have just seen another post relateing this, Maybe someone is doing something sneaky on GzF, or you people have security settings too high - You'll know there is a trojan with threat when I start a thread called "WTF?"
It may be a glitch or just more spyware on your computer, people.

I keep on getting popups with "install 'ADULTS ONLY BLAH BLAH' Yes. No", so I'm starting to get suspicious..it only pops up when i'm on GzF.

Spysweeper is the best thing out... problem is to get the best one, you have to pay for it. They don't have the trial on the site anymore cause so many people abused it, and the cracked versions are just so weak compared to the main

Spy Sweeper is way better, it is worth it to buy the full version, best protection out there so far, get rid of that Norton.
