On my forum we are having issues with a popup in the ads section saying members need to add a plugin to view forum.  When they click on it they get a Trojan virus.  Any help to address this issue would be appreciated.

Inform your members to not press anything on that ad.  Tell them to check their browsers to see if there is an option to block ads.

Why wouldn't you want to remove ads with Trojans in them?  I am guessing they paid money to advertise so they could put a Trojan on people computers and steal their info.  Just isn't making since why you wouldn't scan and remove Trojans, viruses, etc before it get put up on the forums.

Hello,

Ask them to provide a screenshot of the ads, we'll be forwarding the issue to the pro administrator.
