Warning: EntropiaForum - Marked as unsafe

It was fine for me. Now in the last 15 minutes I get a warning every page load and it would not even let me post a reply to 711 to tell him so.

Win 7 64bit Firefox and Sophos here.

I don't appear to be infected yet though.

 

EntropiaForum - Marked as unsafe

I'm using Firefox and I still get the Unsafe site message if I try to go to EntropiaForum.

?? not sure what you meant there..


Anyway i thought i was safe because i use firefox. When I tried to go to EF now i got the above Error.


Has the site been hacked? and does it hold malicious software?

Is EP safe or will this be targeted next?


(please answer in plain english no technical jargon - thanks :P )

 

well seems like my desktop with IE got it when I accessed EF and my firewall is blocking access to a program called ctcnsftav.exe. It removed some program in my spyware program and quarantined it but its still trying to access . when i googled it it says its called program called virus soft which poses as removal program and it was what my program removed... now to remove the rest :(

 

When i was reading EF earlier someone had mentioned about this problem on there.

Also someone posted that they used adblock and noscript addons with firefox. So i've installed them onto my firefox.

If you want to download them here's the link:

https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browse/type:1/cat:12


I dunno if they do any good or anything, just thought I'd share :P

Not been back to EF since i installed these either thought i'd wait for a techy to post first ....

 

Hmm same probleme here :S

 

711 sure has a shity way of dealing with people trying to offer feedback, just dismissing them.

conclusion from reading everything is that EF served up ads that infected alot of people.

 

Was on Ef early this morning and had the adobe error message a few times, shut down and left the house.

Came back tonight and had to reboot my computer 3 times because it kept locking up. Virus scan found nothing, but I wondered if it was related to the issue on EF this morning. I have not gone back there yet, checked here first and am glad to see the info posted here.

I am going to do a deep scan and make sure there is nothing that was missed, but it does seem to be acting better now.

Good luck everyone

 

Hey Ace. :)

The block page people are seeing now is due to google detecting the malicious code that was on the page earlier today. When the search engine spiders from google (and others) visit a page and detect malicious code, it adds it to the data base of blocked sites. 711 has contacted google and asked them to re-test it....once they do that the block will disappear.
That's basically it in a nutshell....someone else can correct me if I got it wrong or missed something... :)

 

Dunno if it's been solved... I was fine all along and now I got the same malware block running it with Google Chrome browser.

 

I have the same problem right now 9:30 CT
I did run the virus program thru and found 4 problem. I clean it and did try open EF again with same problem and a warning :(

 

I had no trojans or other issues found using the lastes dats, Nakwarebyte found nothing and I was unable to find anything.

I have to correct myself that I did not shut down when I left, I just logged off and went into sleep mode. I rebooted and continued to have trouble, once I did a full power off the problems went away. I was not seeing anything suspicious in running processes but must have had something not releasing that was trying to do something until power off.

Everything seems smooth now, I have not been back to EF yet, will probably try to go there a bit later since it appears if my be ok now.

 

Lol @ there being a Thread on EF saying "Hey EF is hacked don´t go there"

Can´t wait to go there and read some tips on how not to get hacke...oh shit my mouse is moving by itself and why is c: being formatted.

 

711 said that a bit earlier:

So I guess we just gotta be patient and ignore that malware screen

 

What i don't get is if 711 is still using openx and it's been exploited by hackers why would google say it's ok? when clearly it won't be ok. 711 would have to correct the root cause of the problem i.e. hackers exploiting openx then have google review it.

So it seems to me this could go on for few days...
