AdBlock Plus user here as well. Disabled it and waited for assets.espn.go.com, then refreshed. Repeated for 3 minutes and got nothing. They've probably cleaned it out.

Re: foxnews.com infected?

I wonder if there a way to monitor the ad sites when they feed these types of trojans.

Seems any site that large would want to do its best not to add to the problem.

The same thing happened to me last night. All I remember was something about "rd-point.net" in the warning. I'm using Firefox (v3.0.8) on a Mac (OS X v10.4.11).

This is why I don't feel the least bit guilty for blocking ads and never will.

I went to the site with IE7, Opera and Seamonkey and got nothing so i couldn't tell you what ad was doing it.
