When I ran the applet of the Wiz's VP game on "Wizard of Odds" site my antivirus system gave me this warning. (above)

This is the Java online, not the wiz applet for phone.

The one here

https://wizardofodds.com/play/video-poker/

Don't mean to say it was the applet, but that's when my antivirus program alerted.

thanks

The Java applet doesn't download any files at all, so I would say it's a false positive. May I ask what antivirus program you use? You can answer by private message if you'd rather not post it for everyone to see.

Microsoft Security Essentials.

Yeah, I don't have any idea whether it had anything to do with the page, but I was using the Java applet there at the time.
