AVG Reporting OCAU Issue (11 Comments) (link)
 Thursday, 15-October-2009  19:45:41 (GMT +10) - by Agg

If you use AVG antivirus you may be recieving warnings about some kind of "active threat" on OCAU. This seems to be an issue with AVG, and is fairly widespread on other sites today (see here and here, etc). It's possible that some kind of web worm has attacked OCAU and many other sites, but it seems more likely to be an issue with AVG, given no other program is reporting any problems. Disabling the AVG toolbar for now is one option if you're having trouble accessing OCAU. I have submitted a false positive report to AVG and hope to hear back from them soon - even if only with more info about what this "active threat" is specifically meant to be.
