Everytime I visit the forums, this comes up:

(root)\APPLICATION DATA\MOZILLA\FIREFOX\PROFILES\DEFAULT.4KB\CACHE\8DC72F81D01

Contains a signature of the (dangerous) backdoor program BDS/Prorat.19.i.2	Backdoor server programs

I delete it, but I'm pretty sure it's not my computer.

Dude,

Check out the forums at http://castlecops.com/forums.html They have excellent information about anti-virus/ spyware/adware and the like. Is where I got most of my own information.

HTH,
Grey

There is very little chance that the infection originated here. If it's in your cache, that could have come from anywhere. Your antivirus is doing it's job though by catching it there.

I know, it's odd. But I never get a virus or trojan. In fact I came here just now to check topics and got the same report.

Your antivirus may be giving you a false reading then. There's no viruses lurking in the forum here otherwise we'd all be getting the same reports since we all view the same pages.
