i got hit by one from this website as well.
i was browsing here when i saw something attempted to turn off my firewall on my pc.
I was slaying dragons so i figured i would check it out in a few. about 1 hour later, all the normal bells and whistles from that xpantivirus 2012 malware started popping up. a back door rootkit came along for fun this time. ping.exe was a nasty variant of this infection. it will lag the fuck out of our pc, since it ramps your cpu processes up to 100%.
this happened saturday.

I had this exact same thing happen to me twice. I would be in EQ with these forums open in the background and the XP antivirus 2012 would pop up. Did a system rollback both times which fixed it. Also, I changed my browser to chrome and haven't had the issue since.
