Same thing here - main page flags Eset NOD32/Eset Smart Security the minute I visit the main Aminet page.

This is not something just hitting our little crater of the world, but a widespread problem on the internet as a whole.  The below gives a rough overview of how widespread it is:

Classic SQL injection.  In this day and age, there's no reason to not be running up to date, modern virus and malware protection, especially on a Windows machine.

Unless you absolutely need Java, uninstall it.

Unsure about the exact terms of what happened to Aminet, but Blackhole is being spread by such methods (SQL, PHP).
