Last night while in the 'ugly hedgehog' I received an ALERT
from AVAST (my security program) stating that it had prevented a virus from entering.

infection: URL:Mal

I ran a scan with my Anti-Malware program hoping that would take care of the situation.

However, today I received the same ALERT

I used the 'report issue' and forwarded your post to ADMIN. I've seen somewhat the same issue a few times over the past few years. ADMIN is a user and a PM to their attention is the best way to alert them of an IT type problem on the website. In addtion to the details you provided, include the date and time too.

Computer guy here. Which antimalware do you have? We like Malwarebytes (the free version is fine), Superantispyware and Spybot. None of them is perfect. I would run one after the other to see if one of them picks it up. Let us know how it turns out. There are more extreme measures to try after this, including doing a System Restore to take the computer back to the way it was before this started. Hope this helps.

Does Malwarebytes put a big drain on your system's resources?

In all likelihood these AVAST alerts have nothing to do with UHH. However, it does sound like you may be dealing with a rootkit that periodically tries to download additional nastiness which AVAST is blocking. I did a search for "AVAST infection: URL:Mal" and found these informative threads (among several others):

http://forum.avast.com/index.php?topic=110393.0
http://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.php?/topic/131309-urlmal-infection/

You will probably have to create a thread on the forum at malwarebytes.org to get some help in cleaning out the infection. They maintain specialized tools and will guide you through the clean up.

Good luck.

I run ESET in conjunction with Malwarebytes Premium live protection on my desktop PC and have never had an alert pop up from this site.
Also never had a problem using an ipad or a Chromebook to view this site.

I received some further info
WINDOWS/SYSwow64/svchost.exe
Should I open this?

I have AVAST as well and got the same alerts as soon as I logged on to UHH yesterday and today. No problems so far, but don't like seeing those boxes!

One other thought: Look into your AVAST logs to find out more about what was happening when those warnings popped up.
Read this entire thread to find the log files:

svchost.exe is part of the Windows operating system. Basically it is a wrapper for many varied running services and processes. If AVAST mentioned it in an alert there may be something viral running inside one specific instance of svchost.exe. See here for more info:

I have and used both
SuperAntiSpyware and Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.

Further info from message
Process: Windows/SYSwow64/svchost.exe.

I am afraid to active it. Any knowledge of it?
