Times Of India Link[edit]

I removed the above link because when I clicked on it, two additional pop-up pages opened, a background download began and my PC was partially infected with the Virtumonde trojan. This despite running Zone Alarm and AVG.

This was the only page I was browsing and the infection was definitely instigated by clicking that link. It's extremely irresponsible to leave it in the article.

My edit was not an attempt at vandalism, nor was it a misguided attempt to help by a panicking amateur - I've been using PCs for well over fiteen years and am well aware of what happened.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by 62.56.79.202 (talkcontribs)
