You mean an app on your computer? What are you seeing?
"Travel changes you. As you move through this life and this world you change things slightly, you leave marks behind, however small. And in return, life — and travel — leaves marks on you.” -Anthony Bourdain

I use several virus and malware scanners and see nothing on TTOL. What "virus" is it showing?

That is a redirector trojan, and I don't detect it here. When you get the message, does it tell you which part of the page contains malicious code? Also, if the connection in your browser remains using "https" and the URL starts with "traveltalkonline.com/ubbthreads" you are still in the right place on the web.

It's possible that his DNS configuration has been compromised.

It is not a virus.
It is avast/avg not liking the banner code. Which sorta is a redirect because it takes you to the sponsors home page if you click on it. Just started happening with avast/avg in the last two weeks.
May have to change how the banners are displayed.
