 BellSouth Network Status page gives Norton AntiVirus alert!

Hi folks:

Is anyone else experiencing this? Is this a false positive or a real problem?

View »help.bellsouth.net/

Click on Network Status in the upper right hand corner.

On the Local System Alerts page select State=Florida, City=West Palm Beach

The System Status page appears for West Palm Beach FL and reports no errors. Within five seconds Norton AntiVirus 2006 generates Virus Alert, High Risk:

Object name: \Temporary Internet Files\hker[1].htm
Virus name: Downloader
Action Taken: The file was automatically deleted.

This is a reproducible problem. I am running Windows XP Professional fully updated and Norton AntiVirus 2006.

Kaspersky Internet Security is showing me an Exploit.JS.ADODB.Stream.y and Exploit.HTML.Mht warning at the Rutherfordton, NC status page.

Since this is caught by various AVs, it seems to be some sort of malware... My Symantec Corporate AV also caught it as "Downloader". Anyone know if this is being investigated by at&t/Bellsouth?

I just came across this myself. Why is it still on the site almost 2 weeks later?

Looks like they are finally fixing it. The page is giving a 404 error at the moment.

But how many more pages of the BS/at&t site may the trojan be on, I wonder? I've always avoided the Bellsouth site as much as possible...
