I keep hearing about how the main benheck website loads a trojan on your computer is this true or not?

False, unless a massive Wordpress worm spreads across the internet.

One of the plan files for an old project (I think one of the VCSPs) had some kind of infection, but I think that file was either cleaned or lost in the mists of time.

If you get virus warnings from the forums, they're most likely false positives.

Just a heads up... a lot of people have questions on this site. If everyone had their subjects as vague as "I have a question" we wouldn't be able to tell what anyone wants without looking through every single thread. Oh, and we like it when questions are ended with question marks. Just sayin'...

The warning went when Ben's backup partially failed and a lot of postings, etc went. Since then, my SiteAdvisor has been "green" instead of "grey", so presumably, whatever the issue was, went.
