It is not a joke ! :/
All I can say is that my Corporate Norton Anti-virus 2003 popped up when i tried to view the movie file, indicating it found a trojan “Trojan.ByteVerify”.

The file is not necessarily called like the Trojan virus, because it comes as a java program. You get the malicious program as soon you open a webpage that forces the java prog to load. A very shocking experience as now you can even get viruses by simply browsing around.

Norton gave me the exact location where it was hidden in my cache. I noticed it was a VERY recent file (like 5 mins ago), I then deleted the complete cache folder to make sure it was gone.

I can not tell exactly where it came from : the preview download, the other movies on your site I viewed, advertising banners.? But I got it by accessing your site..
