Yes, actually I did, i just stop going to mmanews.com.
I think that is something they need to look in, whether its now, or in the future.

I am using firefox with adblocker and nothing happens when I load it up. I don't even use any active antivirus, just windows defender. My advice would be to get the firefox + ABP combo

for anyone that has been infected you will need to download combofix and run it on your pc.
you will need to use firefox or an alternitve browser

Here is a screen shot of the warning I got from using Google Chrome when trying to go to MMANEWS.com. Hope this helps.
