Apparently the FAF have some sort of malicious malware issue going on - probably being distributed through ads:
http://community.livejournal.com/wtf_fa/2186362.htmlNo idea how major this is but you might as well turn off flash or make sure you're not using some stone-age browser (IE) to browse the forums unless you enjoy turning into a zombie. :X
Edit: Whoooops, thinking is hard. Here is the content:
FurAffinity Forums infected and attempting to spread
I wasn't sure if this was worth furrydrama_2 or for wtf_fa, but since it's FA related I choose FA.
Last night I of all people discovered that FAF was having my browsers, both IE and FF access some pages it would't and then attempt to install owc10.dll which is an exploitable DLL by Microsoft. I presumed my PC was full of crap and spent 4 hrs trying to remove the malware before I realized it wasn't my machine but the FurAffinity Forums which were infected.
http://forums.furaffinity.net/showthread.php?t=74724It's sorta covered here, from me thinking something in my machine is interacting to FAF to suggesting that it's FAF itself to other people replicating the bug and Snowfox showing where the malicious code has been injected into FAF and FAF is now being used to distribute it. The infection's behaviour is different now, it no longer accesses a few pages including the one that uses a flash exploit and tries to install a DLL, those pages themselves come up as 404's now even. But you can still briefly see the page hitting up a site like so:

To sum it up: FurAffinity Forums, Now with viruses!
