Lightbulb Bloodhound trojan...
This was found recently on Cuteoverload.com

apparently it only affects IE users.
But we cleared our temp files anyway (Mozilla)

Interesting...it exploits Quicktime...(which I removed from here)

Sorry for all the trouble in the past week. It appears we've finally identified the source of the Windows Trojan. After scouring our site content, mistakenly investigating some of the ad providers, we still couldn't find anything. Still reports kept coming in, so we knew it was still there. It turns out, it looks like our hosting provider system configuration had been compromised and was periodically serving up a page with an embedded JavaScript Trojan within a File Not Found page. The error triggering that 404 has been resolved and we've notified our provider. Once we hear back from them, we'll do a final update, but for now we think we're back to the QTE.

According to Symmantec, it's called the Bloodhound.Exploit.109. The URL for it is here: http://www.symantec.com/en/uk/securi...010315-5708-99
Tomorrow is the big day... computer updates and new hardware from my son for Xmas. I hope to have our computer woes fixed. If not we are buying a new router.

When I did our HouseCall TrendMicro scan it did not find this trojan. But others here may have it.
What is interesting is that I get "page not found" frequently.... duh?
