joebloggsVR69 0 Posted October 31, 2012 Wondering if anyone else is getting this problem. Since yesterday, I've had occasional redirects to this website: http://testables.net/d/juicyru.com It's very random, but it's happened about 3 times on my home PC and once on my laptop at work. Pretty sure I haven't got any malware/viruses, and I've not accidently clicked on the banner :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daleyboy 0 Posted October 31, 2012 That really does look like some sort of malware to be doing that, the question is, is it your computer or the forum server, i have had no such problem, run malwarebytes just to rule out your own machines. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dox 23 Posted November 1, 2012 I've had the same earlier Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daleyboy 0 Posted November 1, 2012 Maybe someone should PM a mod and see what the score is........... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted November 1, 2012 Interesting - only person who can do anything with this is Andi. I've personally not had this happen once though - I use Google Chrome. I'll post a subject in the mods forum to get his attention.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted November 1, 2012 There was a YUI exploit which I've just patched... think it might be related.. Let me know! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted November 1, 2012 Also - make sure you are always logged in when browsing the forum. There is some software which adds links to certain words if you're not logged in (it generates a little bit of advertising revenue for me from the bots that scan the site) but you won't see it if you're logged in.

jamiehamy 0 Posted November 1, 2012 I've only had the 'arse' message recently a couple of times. Bit embarrassing in work when it pops up just as someone approaches my desk...:) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jim 2 Posted November 2, 2012 Anyone got examples of threads that are doing this? I've not had this happen once yet.. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
daleyboy 0 Posted November 2, 2012 It looks like it only happens on Internet Explorer, i use Opera and am unaffected, maybe the affected people could tell us what browser they are on, to narrow it down a tad ? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
VR6 0 Posted November 2, 2012 Yeah I use Firefox and Safari and haven't seen anything yet. Suspicion is also that it could be IE specific? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Andi 2,147,483,647 Posted November 3, 2012 Hi guys, It's not the forum specifically. In fact, I'm not entirely sure where it's coming from - it may be a rogue advert which has installed Malware in IE on your machines, or it may be malware from elsewhere on the internet which just re-writes URLs in vBulletin forums... Not sure! We got a mention on this site which has the same complaint: http://www.sffchronicles.co.uk/forum/538467-being-diverted-to-a-strange-site-looks-scammy.html In fact Google shows a lot of sites with the same thread... no solution yet? (Other than don't use IE - which is pretty wise advice in itself). https://www.google.co.uk/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ie=UTF-8&ion=1#q=testables.net/d/juicyru.com&hl=en&prmd=imvns&ei=ZCyVUPeKCoXF0QXZnoCADg&start=20&sa=N&bav=on.2,or.r_gc.r_pw.r_cp.r_qf.&fp=3f622645d8196b60&bpcl=37189454&ion=1&biw=1366&bih=624 So, best go here, then.. ;) https://www.google.com/intl/en/chrome/browser/ Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
