This morning Kaspersky is detecting Downloader.JS.Iframe.aqo in csshover.htc on a few different websites.
Seems to be a false positive.

UPDATEThis afternoon, I reported the false positive to Kaspersky via a webform. I heard back pretty quickly that this was fixed in the latest defs. Also note Ryan’s entry in the comments.
My problem was compounded a bit becasue the BlueCoat cached the “infected” status, so I needed to clear the cache of that, before csshover.htc could be served.

got a few calls from clients about this today. Appears to be fresh. Hopefully will be fixed in the next round of definitions?
Hello Roger, this is now fixed. Apologies are in order.

We are receiving complaints about this as well.
I have checked the script in question on our server and it is intact, so this is definitely a false positive.
ZoneAlarm Internet Security Suite 7.0.xxx and ZoneAlarm Antivirus uses Kaspersky code and is detecting it as Trojan-Downloader.JS.Iframe.aqo
Kaspersky emailed me that the next set of definitions should correct the false alarm.
What a relief, we were planning to delete csshover.htc and a new hover menu.
My website was also hacked on 9th April, also with iframe worm to chinese server. But my http://www.hackalert24.com account informed me in time, to restore a backup from previous day, so i had no extensive downtime. Really recommendable this service!
