Lots of viruses on deviantart?

Sun Apr 5, 2009, 4:11 AM
I've gotten 3 viruses from deviantart in the last month. From random browsing, seemingly innocent images that weren't similar to each other as far as I know.

I think it's something people are putting in the comments, rather than the artwork/profiles themselves. Or not. I don't know. But am I the only person that has this problem or do other people notice it too? Since when did DeviantArt get so virus-y and is there anything the site can do to maybe try to prevent it? Has it always been able to carry viruses or is it a recent thing that's a side effect of all the new web site changes that happened over the last year? Cuz I like the convenience of the new format/programming, but not if it means dealing with more viruses.
