    Ok let me first make it very clear I could be wrong

    Then let me make it clear not to visit this site unless you've got good av. I'm not responsible </disclaimer>

    gobananas.co.uk is in the coop ad network. My colleague went to the site and instantly got a virus warning popup. I went to the site and it warns me activex content might be unsafe do i want to continue....

    As I said I could be wrong, someone better "in the know" might want to take a look.

    You are right, NAV says that the site is trying to install "trojan.phel" on my computer

    gobananas.co.uk isn't listed as an ad network site (if they are running ad network ads for some reason, they aren't getting credit for it).

    I think I may contact gobananas.co.uk, they use alot of remotely hosted stuff and may not be aware.
