If you have been redirect to EQBrowser, do you now have a keylogger?

There have been many examples of malicious code triggered on people's systems simply by visiting websites. The page we were redirected to ran Unity code - who knows if a new vulnerability has been exploited in Unity. Do you? I sure don't. Hence my question.

Okay I'll answer with what I know (I'm by no means an expert).

1) Yes you can get all kinds of stuff from just visiting web pages or being redirected to them. It doesn't have to be something you directly download and run.

2) That being said Avast! picks up all kinds of stuff when I go to certain sites I cannot mention here and nothing came up from that Unity site.

3) Using his method of getting people to his site.... the thing is probably a keylogger or worse... I would not run it.

4) Can we run an IP trace and report him to homeland security? I know its not legal to do what he's doing.
