Virus alert on PDF

My antivirus has sounded an alarm when I visited the below thread.

Talk Less, Do More... | Page 43

In the recent goof up on PDF, so many users were concerned about the safety issues. These type of viruses on this site may make matters worse. Request mods/admins to take action in the best interests of PDF.

Yes I know...so I named the thread title as virus "alert" on PDF....not virus "on" PDF. Even hotlinks are risky. Users may visit that page and get infected.
