Same here, the first time I clicked on it. The 2nd time it was fine. I thought it was just my computer, so I didn't mention it. Since it happened to both of us, I'm guessing the website is the problem...

Here is a "virus free" source of the same info.

Well, it’s been quite a day for Joss Whedon fans. It was announced Wednesday that Whedon — creator of “Buffy the Vampire Slayer,” “Angel,” “Firefly,” and a pretty gifted writer and showrunner — returning to the small screen for the first time since Fox axed “Firefly” in 2002 after a handful of episodes. Ironically enough, his new TV deal is at Fox, which has given a seven-episode commitment to Whedon’s series “Dollhouse,” which will star Eliza Dushku, who made a bit of a name for herself on “Buffy” and “Angel” as Faith, the slayer who is clearly bad because she wears leather pants and has ill-advised and frequent sex. Dushku will play Echo, a member of an elite squad of covert operatives who are imprinted with different personalities for each mission and whose minds are subsequently wiped when they return to the Dollhouse, the giant creepy lab where they all hang out between jobs. Echo eventually sets out to find out who she really is and used to be, which I’m guessing will drive most of the stories.

I am definitely excited. Joss has proven to be the mast of the small screen. I am surprised he decided to work with Fox, however, given how they completely screwed over "Firefly".

Hollywood Reporter is a pretty reputable site, I didn't get any weird pop ups or virus notifications.

Not 100% sure, but I think he has a contractual obligation with them still so he's in a bit of a bind with his next couple projects having to be done with Fox (if my memory is working, which is a crapshoot at best).

Eliza Dushku tastes like strawberries and cinnamon inside my head.
