FYI My corporate vscan program is detecting an issue with the forum. Pic attached.

Confirmed. I'm getting the exact same warning as Kris from Trend Micro's OfficeScan this morning. I did not encounter this yesterday afternoon when I was here.

Also got a big red warning page from the Chrome browser on the way in but I got that both days.

What the heck is a Docx?

I believe this was reported yesterday Attack Site??

docx or more properly .docx is Microsoft's latest incarnation of a file format for Word documents. It replaces .doc which was in use for many years.

I believe the 'x' in docx stands for XML. The new format is XML based.

BTW, I didn't get either a Trend Micro warning nor a Chrome warning this morning so perhaps the problem is solved.
