When I clicked on the link in BA-Juicer's signature, it took me to a thread and that pop-up came up. My anti-virus went insane. I know this is not specific to my computer because it happened on my iPhone, my girlfriend's iPhone and both of our iPod Touches.

What in the hell is this?

The image is hosted on a website that requires you to sign in to view it, so anyone that isn't signed into that host will get that message.

Odd.

Imgur is an image hosting site but some links are meant to look like common sites but can be virus related.

If you think it is a phinishing link I suggest you PM a Junior Moderator about it immediately.



Ah makes sense

The image in my post is one uploaded by me, a screenshot of the popup I received. Don't post here if you don't bother reading.

I read everything, you made it sound like that was the link that you clicked, I'm apologize for my mistake

Gotcha, well it appears that it isn't a image host. I've gotten this in several threads in the Bar and Pub Games sub-forum.

Link to the threads?

You can search for them yourself. I've left my apartment and I'm on a terrible 3G connection.

It's the website. You can't view the image unless you're signed in.
Whether it's a malicious intent or not is open to speculation.
A senior mod has been directed to it, and it'll be looked into.
