Admins, for the last couple of days, it takes me forever to open up the AD site. My Sophos antivirus software keeps giving me the message below. You may want to check the site for malware.

Thanks,

Jeff

I had this EXACT same problem last week with Kaspersky AV! I'm still getting it occasionally but I've learned to ignore it! It's a malicious trojan according to Kaspersky but it successfully blocks it every time.
