The URL listed in Kevin Brown's screenshot is an internal tracking pixel which the site uses to count things like how many views a thread has gotten, etc. This is extremely standard practice, and has not changed in any way recently. We think, then, it's likely that Norton's "virus definitions" were updated recently and they now erroneously define this tracking pixel as a malicious attack or spyware, etc. That all said, we may have to take up the issue with Symantec. At this time, it seems to be specific only to Norton.
