Possible malware problems from this site

Lucky you. I went down that road once before, but I wasn't strong enough so I turned back.

Keep trying!

98% of the changes from the previous stable Ubuntu release are geared toward "new users". with every release, more and more things "just work".

I keep getting BS like that also.. It all makes it past my popup blocker though since I have this site on my list of Trusted Sites with IE. It only happens while I am on the computer and on this site.. Other sites seem to run fine for me and the rest of my family that use this computer. I have ran the virus scans and spy bot search and have came up with nothing as of yet. I have been running it every day. I first noticed this on Monday I believe it was. I just figured it was my computer messing up or something like that. But maybe it isnt just me.. Keep us posted deev. Later

I have xp and firefox which blocks everything but at work i get the "active control x" thingy that pops up but our security at work is pretty good.

About 10 minutes ago I kicked my popup blocker to the highest sensitvity level and it went without a problem for about 8 minutes. I was browsing around CB7tuner and then pop the CB7tuner window closed, a few seconds passed where I could only see my desktop background, and then http://pspwizard123.com/?hop=sniper84 appeared. Maybe a site URL can help narrow down the source.. I dont know.

EDIT: I am beginning to think that mine is something seperate from this site... It just happened again while I was on a different site www.kcsr.org was the site I was on.. It closed, a few seconds passed and then http://mp3review.biz/index.asp?revid...84&glid=&ovid= appeared. Later

i'm running the most up to date stuff for XP and IE. everyone once in a while while i'm surfing cb7tuner, my ActiveX thingy makes a popping sound basically blocking whatever is trying to open up.



if you guys are running IE like me and think your browser is hijacked..
download the most recent version of Hijackthis and go hereHijackthis Log file analysis

this site will tell you what to keep and what to remove. these two things have saved my computer several times.

agreed.

X2 use k-melon. thats what i did at school. they put up a IE block and the teacher had to type in a password everytime if u want to go online. well i installed k-melon on the server and i can get online anywhere in the school.

Yeah that 'pspwizard site is one of them. As far as happening on other sites, I think the worm got installed here. The browser windows can just popup anytime after the worm is installed. Like I said I can have my browser shutdown and a new window will just open up on its own.

I disabled the banner ads, as I'm sure it came through them... I doubt the text ads would carry anything.

I'll contact Clicksor and tell them that there's a potential issue with one or more of their ads.

[starchland]

hmm would it be something to do with those underlined words too when u mouse over?

[accordaffair]

I'm having no issues yet

XP/firefox/several adware programs

They've been there for over a year with no issues... I don't think that's it.

I'm sure it had to do with the graphical banner ads.


I need to start selling the banner space at the top of the site. I think I'm going to charge $15 a month. I'll have 2 banners displayed at one time (the height of the cb7tuner graphic to the left) and the banners will rotate.

That way, I can control the content, I can dictate to some extent the style of the images (we won't have any flashing "click the fart button" crap!), and it'll be either helping out real members from the site (like doylna and his lucrocash site), or it'll be advertising for companies that actually help our scene (like Bisimoto)

[deevergote]

Does anyone remember the ad that may have caused the problem? I think it may be the one that causes my browser to block an activex control...

If I can identify that ad, Clicksor can remove it. They are looking into the issue right now.
