When I logged in here this past Sunday morning (May 1st) my anti-virus warned me about serious malware on the site and blocked me from visiting. I use multiple methods to protect my computer, including running Norton and other compatible anti-malware software, as well as browsing in a sandbox. But I still respected the warning and did not continue to the site. I then resisted the temptation to try again till this morning (Monday) where it appears the malware was removed. I believe it was embedded in one of the popup ads, probably NOT in Zam's site directly. But this should be watched for carefully by the site's developers. Anyone visiting without good protection for their browser could have had their computer contaminated by a drive-by malware infection and that would be a very very bad thing. There are game-related sites I stopped visiting over the years because the webmasters just didn't seem to do a good job protecting their site. A symptom which everyone should pay attention to is when site forums are full of obviously spammer and robo type posts, having nothing to do with the site's subject matter. A site that doesn't protect and monitor its forums probably doesn't protect and monitor its own content as well, including banners and other ads. THIS site had trouble for a long while with such robo posts, but the good news is they used to remove them quickly and nowadays we don't even see them, which means either the devs have succeeded in blocking them completely---or perhaps it's just that there's less traffic in the EQ forums here now and the spammers don't bother to robo post!
