Man, I forgot my account info for the avast forums, so thought I post it here.
Avast antivirus is detecting a suspicious component on IE7's homepage. It only pops up the alert once.
Need some verification about this issue. Microsoft must have a lot of money to put these ads on their pages.

THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS ISSUE AS VBS:ZULU APPEARS TO BE A VIRUS.
