2 edits |  Is this site infected?
My uncle got a political flyer the other day, and when he visited their website, AVG caught some form of malware. I want to know if it really is infected and not a false positive, so that we can contact them and let them know. The link is contained inside the text file attached to this post, and a screencap of the virus detected message is above as well. It pops up with both IE and Firefox, and IE requests ActiveX scripts to run, which I denied, of course.
Thanks a bunch.

LOL! POOR coding on that page! Opera chokes hard on it for 30 seconds and finally opens. 
IE7 just gets stuck in a loop asking for ActiveX.

Visited it using Mozilla 1.7.10. Nothing whatsoever from
Avast when the page was loaded, but scanning my cache came
up with the same warning about Gedza.A.
Since I don't have an ActiveX extension for Mozilla, it
can't be executed.

I just got off the phone with Fran Gianoutsos and she was shocked (to say the least) that their site is throwing up these warnings. She said she would get in touch with her webmaster.

said by Stem Bolt  :Looks like they took down the website. Nope, still up. I guess the admins over @ WildWestdomains.com do not know how to kill a server. Most likely there is more then one site infected over there.

Bitdefender found 16 infections. All .htm files.
Kaspersky finds nothing. Can anyone confirm this? |

Funny, I can't open the website anymore in Firefox but I can still get the website in Internet Explorer multiple times. I was able to load the site 1 time in Firefox that's when Dr. Web detected it. I've shut down Firefox and restarted but still can't load the website.
------------
Edit: Dr. Web "locked" objects from this site while in Firefox. That's why I can't reload the website in Firefox.
