My friend accessed my site, said it gave both his computers a virus
-
Please help me! My friend clicked on my blog (http://hidden-films.com/) and said the following happened to him:
Now everything I search only goes through Hidden Films. Example: If I try to use Google Search to find “Runwatcher” what I get is:
http://hidden-films.com/?s=runwatcher
Whatever this is has infected both of my laptops and I can’t search for anything that is not on hidden films.
Any suggestions???
Can someone please help me figure out if my blog is infecting users?? I have sometimes received spam comments (and used Akismet to block them, ever since) but this is the first time I’ve gotten a complaint from anyone accessing my blog. Let me know, thanks!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Your blog is not infecting users. Your friend is technologically unsophisticated and from the sounds of it his browser is already infected by something. He needs to disable his add-ons. One of them is probably causing this.
You don’t even have a search box on your blog. WP.com blogs are set up in such a way that they are pretty much invulnerable to the kinds of attacks and malware that is common elsewhere; that’s one reason they’re so popular. I cover hackers as a journalist, and I assure you there is no virus on your website.
TERRIFIC idea for a site, by the way.
