Sniper101 Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 Opera doesn't even acknowledge the code let alone try to run it. I agree :D i'm using opera and nothing has poped up saying anything :D plus Avast Professional would come up right away and say that the virus has been Removed :D.

cork1958 Posted July 9, 2006 Share Posted July 9, 2006 No issues here, except for the usual slowness of the site anymore. Even that is running pretty good today though. Running Mandriva One and Opera 9.0! :yes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Veteran Posted July 9, 2006 Veteran Share Posted July 9, 2006 We have this hack utilised on our forums all the time, just stupid script injection Stupid script injection that attempts to exploit an OS vulnerability.

snyper Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 This is the story. Yesterday i was in an internet cafe logged on and when i changed page on the forum, the computer said their was a trojan / worm on the computer so i backed out presuming it may ne the pc... But todasy in work i logged on using the desktop not my laptop for precaution and the same thing happened!! A script prompt came up and AVG said there was a trojan it couldnt treat, so i installed avast that i use on my lappy and used ad-ware to remove the Trojan, and downloaded the latest patch from windows. I logged on again and the same thing happens again except avast wouldnt let it onto the pc and every time i put the trojan into the archive chest and changed page on Neowin it popped up again and each time avast asks me to abort the browsing. I then deleted all cookies and temp internet files and maxxed all security settings and i am havin sucess as you can see im here!, but every time i change page or refresh here on neowin i hear a blip and a pop up sayin security settings wont allow activex .. Why is did i get this from neowin?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Echilon Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 How incredibly naive you are. Why would neowin send you a worm. It's possible if you're security settingsa re set wrong, but common sense would point to a dodgy IE addin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 for now I would recommend switching to a different skin. That will resolve your issue until a admin/coderator can fix the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomoko Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 Why is IE7 Beta 3 letting wmf files open anyway? So much for better security. I was actually pretty impressed with Beta 3 and had starting using it as my main browser, thinking I would be returning to IE. Not anymore though; that's just pathetic. :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ViperAFK Posted July 10, 2006 Share Posted July 10, 2006 well, my pc has the wmf patch and I'm using opera, so i didn't even know of it until I saw this thread. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
