What a/v scanner do you use and how long have you used it for? Have you updated it recently or changed some settings (ie. to make it more strict)?

It's a false positive it's complaining about the chat boxes used on this site; the way they update themselves without you having to reload a page; your a/v is being rather over-sensitive.

This is an over-sensitive anti-virus issue and as such, I am closing.
Reduce your anti-virus settings or allow torn.com in your safe list.
