Aminet Attacked

This was posted as news by rockape, I'm posting it in the forum instead as the issue has been fixed but anybody who has visited on a PC in the last day or so might want to scan their PC

Is Aminet OK/infected?


I couldn't download anything from there from my Amiga using either iBrowse or AWeb.

I poked my laptop at it, and Avast AV said it stopped a bad program....
I couldn't download from there either.
(Every thing I tried to DL actually downloads a script that's encoded, that sounds bad...)

(Note: don't go running there if you have Windows just to see if it's safe!
