Can anyone identify this security warning?

I need some help again.

Just yesterday, I started receiving a warning from my Antivir.

The only web site I have open, is AMHD, so I'm confused as to where or what this is coming from.

Here is what it tells me:

Warning. the following has been detected:

HTML/Infected.WebPage.Gen

I have chosen to "delete" each time, but it continues to appear, three times now in the past hour.

Anyone know what's going on?

Is it possible, that I have asked this question, and not a single member or moderator has any clue as to what it may be?

Well here's the write up about it: HTML/Infected.WebPage.Gen - Full description

Very odd indeed as AMHD is clean.
Could it possible be some other malware infection, possibly a popup that is generating this message ?

When was the last time you scan for spy/malware ?

Perhaps the infected page is linked to in AMHD's advertising?

Curlyben · Jun 15, 2008, 01:16 AM

AMHD does NOT employ pop up or pop under ads of any sort.
All the advertising is dealt with by Google ads.

If you are getting any pop ups while you are on the site then I would ensure your system is malware clear.
