Virus?

For the past few days as I access our site, my Anti-Virus software (Symantec) is notifying me that it is detecting a virus named "Downloader" (information below)

http://www.symantec.com/security_response/writeup.jsp?docid=2002-101518-...

I typically receive the message before I log in and it appears it's not a huge threat and is always quarantined and susequently removed.
Just wondering if anyone else is experiencing this problem or if anyone is aware of anything abnormal in this regard.

I haven't seen it

I haven't had this type of experience that I can recall.  Sorry I can't be more help!

I think the threat is coming

I think the threat is coming from somewhere else. I also have norton and have not gotten any notices when I access our website.

Not Sure Where It Originated......

I'm not sure where the virus actually originated, but it popped up every time I tried to log into our site. I've run Spybot and Adaware and they didn't find anything. As I mentioned before, my Symantec anti-virus software captured the item each time it tried to download.
For the past day or more it seems to have stopped. Just wanted to make sure that our site wasn't the cause.
