Exploits take advantage of vulnerabilities. Exploit declarations are attempts and are not
really indicative of an infection just an attempt to take advantage of a vulnerability. In
your case a HTML redirection vulnerability exploit.
Just in case, perform the following...
1) Download the following three items...
Trend Sysclean Package
http://www.trendmicro.com/download/dcs.asp
Latest Trend signature files.
http://www.trendmicro.com/download/pattern.asp
Adaware SE (personal free version)

Create a directory.
On drive "C:\"
(e.g., "c:\New Folder")
or the desktop
(e.g., "C:\Documents and Settings\lipman\Desktop\New Folder")
Download sysclean.com and place it in that directory.
Dowload the signature files (pattern files) by obtaining the ZIP file.
For example; lpt194.zip
Extract the contents of the ZIP file and place the contents in the same directory as
sysclean.com.
