Site Issue

[bassjamm]

Hi,

Not sure if this is in the right forum but here goes...

I've been browsing the site without any issues this morning up until the past 5-10 minutes or so.

Every time I try to load a new page I'm getting a warning saying the site may harm my computer as it appears to contain malware software.

Just thought I should let you Moderators know.

Thanks
Jamie

Same here, but not getting the message when viewing on my mobile.

I've cleaned out my cookies but still get the same message.

Warnings on Safari too

[SteveK]

No warnings with Firefox. Can anyone confirm if this is a hoax or more serious?

[Thurbs]

Firefox has the warning now.

I haven't had the warning at all from the start (FF16). My impression is that it also depends on your antivirus package as well as your browser.

And yes, it would be nice to know whether or not there's any truth to this security alert.

If you look at the page source you'll find a hidden link to secfbichecker.com, which is serving some kind of script. No idea what it is, but it's likely that which is triggering the alerts. Not good.

Yep, tried about 11ish last night and it was there.

[Jacqueslemac]

I had the same warning yesterday, but nothing this morning (I'm on a Mac running Safari).

[RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE]

Had it last night. I'm on iPhone now, and it seems ok now

[paulconnolly]

Had an e-mail exchange with site admin (I wasn't going to risk ignoring the warning and accessing the site). Seems the admins were aware of the issue and spent most of yesterday working to resolve it. Looks like it's sorted now as no warnings anymore.

Yes, but what was the 'issue'? Was it a hoax? Or was there a genuine malware problem? In which case everyone effected/infected will need to take measures... such as (my preference) reinstalling an older drive image... assuming of course, it's not too late. Any info from those in the know would be appreciated.

Yes I've been worrying about this as well.

[paulconnolly]

Seemed to be genuine malware infecting the site.
