Quit with the sky is falling. It isn't. Our hosting company is very good. There might be some infectious issue but it's not on this site. Once again, the sky isn't falling. Thanks for the heads up though.

AVG says Ebay is infected with JS:Redirector-BMU[Trj]
According to AVG, Ebay is infected today with JS:Rediretor-BMU[Trj]

The precise url is ebay.com/rdr/js/s/rrbundle/flat.min.js

Another site's info on what this is says:

JS:Redirector-BMU is a trojan that comes hidden in malicious programs. Once you install the source (carrier) program, this trojan attempts to gain "root" access (administrator level access) to your computer without your knowledge.

Trojans like JS:Redirector-BMU are difficult to detect because they hide themselves by integrating into the operating system. Once it infects your computer, JS:Redirector-BMU executes each time your computer boots and attempts to download and install other malicious files. Upon successful execution, it deletes the source program, making it more difficult to detect.

Just got this warning a minute ago. Anyone else have it come up?
