Okay,

Reference the pub I'm not aware of any virus issues or infections...  noooo:

We're running the latest version of the code and I've not had any issues... I spend enough time on here to be infected if there was a problem!  lol:

Please let me know of any suspicions of problems with the site ASAP.

Cheers... (https://www.virtual-pub.com/SMF/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.freesmileys.org%2Fsmileys%2Fsmiley-eatdrink009.gif&hash=95b14be946c44a5082357f9149006a40384e87fa) (http://www.freesmileys.org)

A couple of times yesterday I got redirected to another site. It dowloaded a piece of shite call System Security. Took ages to get rid of it

Okay...

I've had a couple of reports of problems with the site since I posted this morning...

I've downloaded all the files and virus tested them but found nowt... I've checked on the SMF site and there isn't anything exactly like this (some users are getting blank pages when they click links too)...

So, I've decided to re-install the entire thing.  eeek:

Prolly have to close the pub for a day  scared2: and I'll wait 'til next week when I'm back in the UK and have fast Intermong connectivity...

Meanwhile I suggest that everybody makes sure that their anti-virus software is up-to-date.

Also, please keep me informed of any unusual things on the site (apart from the posts and users) so that I can perhaps get a better idea of what could be wrong.

Ta muchly...  ;)

Blank pages using Firefox that can be corrected by using the refresh button.
Using IE get directed all over the sodding place. Also, as reported a week ago, underwent a virus attack whilst signing into the pub using IE.
Took some time to purge it from my PC ~ NO such problems using Linux operated LapTop..

There is deffo a problem somewhere.

Anti Virus updates and scan carried out daily using AVG 8.5 ~ which is how I was alerted to the incoming virus.

To make more money ~ Microsoft have always done this since the very early days. Also whatever anyone does some arse wants to prove he can "hack" it or disrupt it in some way so to "Them" it is one big game. Those of us trying to actually work or even play on boards like this are a joke to such "superior" beings.
