exploit script injection

[willowman]

Tried to go to a seemingly innocent website today and AVG popped up a warning about "exploit script injection (type1702)".
I went no further and googled this warning; sadly the answers were all in techy speak, so I could understand little of it.
What does this warning mean? (In plain English please)
Is the web site I was looking for infected, and is it trying to infect me?
Could the website owners be unaware that this is happening?
Thanks.

I've just googled it and although I'm no techy, it seems to infer that you are in danger of being hacked. Do you have a good virus checker on your computer?

[willowman]

I have AVG (which spotted the problem on the other website and gave me the warning), Malaware and Spybot.
I will be running them all ASAP.

Just scanned with AVG, Malaware and Spybot.
Nothing shown up, so fingers crossed.

It may have been a malicious script .. it may not.
Post the link/website address here.

Those who do not know exactly what they are doing I advise you to steer clear.

( ... and take what AVG says with a pinch of salt)

I take it was a porn site then, as no answer.

[willowman]

No, it was not a porn site! I run my own business and have just been busy.
Can't remember the exact web address, but it was for Greens Park and Leisure Homes in Ferrybridge.
Have spoken to the company and they are now aware that their site has been hacked.
What do you mean "take what AVG says with a pinch of salt"?
Everyone on here seems to recommend them.

AVG is fine for a free AV. I have friends who use it. I used to until it let something through and I swopped to a paid AV. (In fairness none can guarantee blocking everything, but one can't be expected to stay with one that has failed once.) Also AV applications are not immune to false positives being flagged. But in this case it seemed all was fine, the danger spotted and prevented in time.
