I am finding fairly frequently that links to projects (especially source code links) are infected with viruses. This has happened to me four (4) times in the last three days. This is a relatively new experience for me. But it may or may not be new.
I thought I should report it.

They may be real, they may just be false positives.
The place to raise this is here: Bugs and Suggestions[^] - but please let them know which downloads (or at least which articles) are affected if possible, and which antivirus you are using to detect them.

Poor misguided wretches that they are.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

Yes. We in the Church of Linus Torvalds have seen the one and only true light.

If you can, try uploading the downloads that having given you a positive on viruses to https://virustotal.com[^] and let the 66 antivirus scanners there take a look.
It may provide an idea if there are false positives.

This is the sort of thing that can very well happen because of stuff running client-side.
Time to look for add-ons that might've gotten themselves inserted into your browser. Does it happen with other browsers, or just one?

Code Project is always under attack. Hamsters, green drunk guys named Bob, more hamsters, bad jokes, people who hate Microsoft, people who love Microsoft...

Hate is such a strong word. How about 'despise'?

Actually, despise is stronger than hate, with despise carrying extra meaning.
despise & hate[^]
first site that agrees with me, so I linked it. I have no idea if it is credible or not.

I can despise them without much emotion, except for a trace of pity.

They will hate you for that.

To borrow some phrases: Haters always hate, and don't confuse the haters with facts.

The Postman delivered a letter last week and it says "Do Not Bend" in large red letters on it. I still haven't figured out how I'm supposed to pick it up.

Take walking cane, apply bubble-gum or instant-glue.

Personally, I'd simply bend the rules instead

You don't suffer from back pains don't you? I learnt how to pick up anything without bending.

He could just stand straight, fall over and roll over to the letter. Opening an envelope can be a bit tricky without bending one's fingers - but gnawing is worth a try.
