Till the end of last week I was using Avast at work place and now I have Kaspersky installed. At home I have AVG and none of those three programs ever reported something similar in regards to the abovementioned.

I use ESET SMART Security 4 and mediafire works fine for me.

I checked with Norton, AVIRA and AVG. Mediafire works fine for me.

Something similar happen to me too (and very frequently with that site and others). I get the following message:

"Harmful web site blocked"

And under that I have the option:

"I want to enter this web site anyway"

When want to download something, just accept to enter that site. But as soon as possible, I perform a complete scan of my computer, including advanced heuristics.

I use F-Secure (Internet Security 2011) with on-line instant updates. If my memory plays right, I think my settings in F-Secure are above normal, as I do a lot of private bussiness operations with my primary computer.
