From Candkekeep[quote:3l3sur5c]Please edit your above post and remove the link ASAP.

I got a BAAAAAAD virus from viewing that map last night - it was embedded in a DevianART ad. I will be posting all my maps on a site of my own making from now on, and ALL of those will be taken down. About a year ago I had someone tell me about this problem, and I didn't really believe them (because I go there all the time and have never run into it before).[/quote:3l3sur5c]

Where was this? I've been on DA recently, and have had no problems.

Like I said, it appeared to be in an advertisement one of the scribes reported it at candlekeep, which I know you read.
The thread was concerning distances or maps.
I can find it I am sure was posted something like 48 hours ago.

Do you happen to know which ad it was? I've not had the problem crop up. It might have been removed already.

Things like this just make me glad that I've got an ad-blocker. :)
