Yep that looks standard. When you visit the iTunes store IE or Firefox will ask you to open the page in iTunes instead (unless of course Kapt is saying that iTunes is a worm tongue in cheek ;p)

does this only happen at the HWC site ? I would clean all cookies and everything out on that OS then try again, I haven't had any such popups at all on the site since I checked and cleaned out oall the OS's running in VB

We've been continually conducting sweeps of ALL sections of the site and the issue hasn't come up again.

Omgwtf sent a link directly to this post, which just set off my AV again. Only other pages open were GMail, Google, and Craigslist (which had all been open for a while before this)



*EDIT*

Clicked it a couple more times, pops up every single time.

Tried your link in my Virtual XP, using fully updated MSE and got an infected warning too. It then redirected the browser to a website. I have attached the virus warning as pic1, and the redirected page as pic2.

Odd. I'm running MSE + Chrome and I don't get anything there.
