What is this?

    Hi :)

    I was trying an addon for IE7 and it was brilliant but one of the search sites, which I had never heard of, kept popping up and I was searching "TEST" for making it a more defined search when my av (Avira) popped up saying this:

    AntiVir has detected 'JS/Iframe.1094'
    in the file
    C:\Documents and Settings\user name\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files\
    Content.IE5\GWHMV3R4\date[1].js

    Ran a full scan after that with Avira av, AVG AS and SAS, nothing else so I presume it stopped it there, went to the KB but no info on what JS/IFRAME is? Went to a few other vendors sites and found nothing, after a search I found a similar one but the number at the end was different. What is it?

    I have open in an iframe disabled but what worries me most is I was actually just on a search page and not on any website! I usually use Fx for browsin' but do take IE out now and again plus a couple of others. Could this be on my 'puter somewhere?

    Thanks :major

    I wouldn't worry about this. These are rarely anything really important and your antivirus more than likely just deleted the file. If not, just emptying the browser cache will clear the TIF or you could use a program like CCleaner to empty it.

    JS just means JavaScript which is what the file is. And you can read about Iframe here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IFrame
