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.
