I think Yahoo has been compromised.
I'm running their language translation page (Babel Fish)
Avast keeps saying that pages contain the HTML:iframe-inf code.
I've been using that site for translations for months and Avast is popping up a warning with every page from that site now.

I've just run a virus scan on my pc and it seems to be clear.

Edit: It seems the same problem is occurring with a number of people visiting various Yahoo pages. It is not clear at the moment if Yahoo is infected or if this is a false positive though.

Edit2: Problem has gone away after doing a manual update of the virus database. Seems it was a false positive hitting everyone who went to the Yahoo site. Avast have released a mini-panic update to fix it. :roll:
