My licenced Kaspersky Internet Security 2009 (updated database) displays a securiy warning whenever I open Alexa to check rank of any website. Just check the screenshot below.

alexa-contains-trojan-program

The object which seems to contain the trojan is heroestelevision.com/favicon.ico. Name of the trojan was “Trojan-Downloader.JS.Iframe.bag”. Kaspersky was quick to deny the loading of this object but everybody might now have Kaspersky with them. Watch out guys!
