    I have been getting this feedback from very few of my members that when they run my website in IE, very few times it redirects them to some virus or spyware site or sometime it asks them that "this website wants to install an addon" which is apperantely a virus. this happens ONLY in IE. works fine with opera and firefox

    Any idea?

    Maybe an ad your running on your website is doing it. Firefox and Opera have a lot of script blocks and that's why it's only happens in IE.

    try re uploading the infected html files to overwrite the old file but try to scan or review your codings into it first before doing the uploads
