I was on ANN on my PC on Firefox and suddenly a Firefox HTML document was downloaded onto my computer without my prompting it. I scanned the file and it was found to contain no threats and so I just deleted it. I mention this because I worry something harmful might be put on ANN (not by staff, by some malicious site visitor somehow) and I want to make sure your site is secure. Again, I don’t blame the staff at all for this, just alerting you guys.

Thanks for letting us know. I'm at a loss to explain this.
If it happens again, please click the "report a problem" button (exclamation mark in the bottom right of the screen).
