Nothing of the sort on my end here Nikon. Maybe a problem with your browser, or maybe just a temporary condition. ------------- It may be that you are right. Then again, you may be wrong. http://elgea.illyriad.co.uk/a/p/57903" rel="nofollow">  |

| Several people have mentioned that they have had problems signing in. I've caught a .exe file trying to download a couple of times, but I thought it was probably related to the IRC chat that I also had open. |

I'm facing the same issue here. I was able to login this morning, but when I changed my accounts, I got error below:

We have contacted Sophos for feedback on this; it is an issue related to use of the Facebook "like" button. Do you get it on the login page or after logging in?

| In my case, it is just after logging in. I have no problems at home, where i don't use sophos. But at work sophos is used and the problem persists. I was, however, able to log on at work via facebook. |

I am having the same issue with Sophos after I put my credentials in and click Log In. If I close the tab and reopen and go to elgea.illyriad.co.uk I also receive the error. I assume it's because illy still shows me as logged in. Thanks, WaltDjr

@Rill there should never be any exe downloading with Illy. it's all html/html5. hope it's just a false positive by Sophos... -------------

I really hope it's a false positive from Sophos. I'm using AVG, and I'm still confident it should register any drive by downloads, shouldn't it?

The Sophos report is around a hidden Facebook like button that you'd click when you think you are clicking something else, so called "social jacking". It is a false positive; but may be triggered by how we add the Facebook like button to the herald after rendering, so as to not slow down our page start-up by relying on Facebook.
