Hi guys, some of you may have noticed a malware warning when visiting Exilian lately, this was because the .htaccess file was modified to perform redirects to malware sites when exilian was clicked on from google. I have removed the offending file and am about to request a review of the site to get it taken off the blacklist, and I would strongly suggest everyone does a virus check on their systems, just to make sure nothing evil was downloaded.

Thanks,

Marcus.

If we didnt get the warning, do a check anyway?

A positive attitude may not solve all your problems, but it will annoy enough people to make it worth the effort.

Yes Ladyhawk, do the check anyway.

Thanks Marcus I was wondering about that.

I never saw anything related to this.

It was only flagged up by the Chrome browser.

It has been flagged up on Chrome, but also Firefox and Google's built in system from Google search.

I'm going to update the forum software, then request a review, and in the mean time look at the php code for uploading news to the main site, and look for vulnerabilities.

Good luck with that my friend.

Well everyone I was just attacked by a virus posting on this site. Luckly my computer blocked it, and (hopefully) no harm is done. I do recommend that everyone runs a scan please. :)

I tried to get on with my phone and it said it could be harmful.

Exilian is fine from my phone. But something attacked my pooter.

Marcus, given Google hasn't removed us yet, does that mean there might be more redirects/malware issues?
