I was on G-Y-R and guess what? It detected malware being installed on my computer! One of the ads is a bad ad. A malware ad. This has GOT to change! The whole "Great,free,and safe ROM site" thing will be blown if this ad isn't removed. I don't know what ad it is because,being the coward i am,i fled the site as soon as i saw it.

calm down Ras, thats not a definate.
remember, you yourself have said you get virus from time to time.
its more likely a tracking cookie or something that activated.
but we do need to know what the ad was to check.
and also dont panic because there is an ad which says that you have a virus and need to get this other antivirus.
its just a scare tactic to make you get it.
so tell me, was it your own antivirus that said about a virus?
im following up all possible leads, because our ad's have been told to us their safe, but if theres a chance their not i will investigate

Nononono, that is an ad, it is not REAL it is completely fake. They want you to click their product so you buy it from them. Trust me, adbright using malware when it is one of the 3 top used advertising places on the web I highly doubt it. I ran into the same ad it is deceiving and I want to report that ad for scaring people. There is nothing to be worried about it is just a scare tactic nothing more nothing less. GYR will not infect your computer, the ads wont either, if it shows that stupid ad scanning ignore it it's fake.

dude, your web browser never says theres malware unless you have a very specific antivirus that plugs into it. very specific.
we're not questioning your intellegence.

If a website is reported to contain melware, then it will popup in both FF and chrome. I think it goes for if it loads content from other sites.

You will be 100% safe, especialy with chrome. Next time it happens, take a screenshot.

All of our ads are from Adbrite and they are legit and don't approve of ads that would infect your computer with stuff like that so this is definitely an issue on your end.

If you got spyware from somewhere else, sometimes spyware will implement itself on websites you go to in order to make you think it's part of the site. Or as Jigsaw said, it could just be an ad that's lying about you having something on your computer so that you download their product and scan your computer.

Either way, this is not an issue with Get-Your-Rom.

Than He Created David, But No One Would Beleive,

My buddy had the same problem, it was his first time visiting the site and Avast popped up saying it detected a trojan. He had just clicked on the Playstation ISO link. Sounds kind of fishy to me.

First rule of avast! it is OVER-protective.

Half the time it detects viruses, they are NOT viruses.
Example:
Long time ago I played Maplestory. One of tha hacks I used for the game came in an installer format that was very old and GENERALLY used for Malware. Avast said it was malware. It was not.

So, avast! is very very careful, sometimes you have to trust your gut whether the file is a virus or not. Half the time, ignore avast!

Note: I do not take responsibility for anything that happens to your computer after following my advice.
Come hither young squire, and listen to my hymns of old.

Life. Filled with treacherous roads, and dangerous paths. Treachery, lies, lust, greed, and malice. Simply living is misery enough for all eternity. No one knows when it will end, or if it ends at all. Do not worry, for I am your savior. I am your Messiah. I. Am. Death.

I can agree with Neyro on that. But then again, I have never seen Avast alert me unless I use programs that are "shady".

the only real bad thing with avast is that it snipes file transfers without warning. Stupid as f***. :/
