Anyone else getting this?
« on: January 08, 2010, 09:39:24 PM »
_JeT_ and Deathreaper have been getting viral warnings while visiting Charas Forums. Various security warnings. I have not YET but they have. Anyone else getting viral warnings/infections while browsing Charas Forums? Since two people have already gotten this I think I should bring it up with all of you in case it is actually an infection that originates here.

Well though answering "no" might seems unnecessary, it's good to have positive answer. Or so I think.
Maybe just a coincidence?

Maybe it is, but also one that repeated itself. So now I'm curious about it and if there is something going on. It is a coincidence when it happens once, but twice is when I start scratching my head.

I've been getting viral warnings too! I just installed a new anti-virus today though, so at first I thought it was just my anti-virus acting stupid. But it's only been occuring while visiting this site. Not sure what the problem is, but it's been really annoying...

Something keeps popping up and saying that an unknown file is trying to access my computer. I just keep saying "no" but it always pops up whenever I refresh or go to a new page.

Really? That makes three people now. A bit beyond mere coincidence. What is your scanner? Norton?

Just scanned just to make sure. Nothing.

If it's being done by an ad, I wouldn't know, I have adblock on.

I don't have that, but I tried to log in and all I got was a blank screen.   Happens every time I post, too.

Fixed it by fiddling with the URL, but it's annoying.

I've just gotten the blank page as well. Maybe all this could be related to that hack that prevent us from using attachments. Maybe not, though...

I blame the Gorram Reavers. 

That's just my opinion, though.

Do the people getting viral warnings have popups blocked? It might be an ad.

adblock+Sophos; no warnings.

I'm getting blank pages for posting and editing profile. Might have something to do with some people's avatars disappearing.

I'm not getting virus warnings, and I installed anti-malware programs yesterday because I got some nasty malware for some reason (probably not related, but can someone look into it?)

It's 'Avnas'. Av. Nas. Five letters, not that hard.
So stop calling me 'Anvas'.

Not sure if this is related, but just now, I couldn't log in for a while. Even though it said I was logged in, it kept treating me like a guest and asking me to log in. Now, I logged in and every now and then it'll treat me like a guest again. Sometimes I can check my messages but when I click a forum or thread, there's that box at the top asking me to type in my user info and log in. If I refresh or go back to the main forum page, it returns to normal and I'm logged in.

Also, I get the white blank page when I post or log in.

I don't have any viruses. I'll scan tonight however. Maybe it's just the site acting screwy?

EDIT: Also when I delete posts or edit them.

I get a blank page when I don't put the "www" in the URL.

Test post:

http://charas-project.net/forum
http://www.charas-project.net/forum

Edit - It went blank when I posted this, even though there was www in the URL. Hmm.
Edit 2 - My avatar vanished. And so did some other people's. Might not be related though.
