DMCTalk is Infected. Again.

Tried it on a Android 5.0 lollipop and it went to filestore72 (dot) info/download.php?id=c86d8d12 => bunch of BS

Ok guys, filled in my guy on this one more time, and he put in more security features to help rid these pesky bots and malware issues and found some new problems that may have been causing this still. Please keep me updated on this if you see more issues occurring. Supposedly the issue is resolved now, though I'm never sure until I hear from you the users. I've tried troubleshooting some of the examples you guys have posted here and all seems ok right now.

Seems OK now.

Clicking on the DMCTalk banner at the top of the page now redirects me to the following site:

REFERENCE PURPOSES ONLY! "P" IN "HTTP" REMOVED TO DISPLAY ENTIRE LINK.

htt ://malware.opendns.com/main?server=dfw6&url=dmctalk.org%2Fforum.php&proxy =y&origin=Eg9oGgx9DBguBQpwGAgdFQ%3D%3D&prefs=16448 &tagging=0x1f%2C0xd000780000000000&ref=http%253A%2 52F%252Fdmctalk.org%252Fforumdisplay.php%253F2-General-DeLorean-Discussion

Opening up just the root address alone on iOS gives me an error that there are too many redirects. It looks as though the "forum.php" file is infected as if I go to the root URL by itself, let alone sub-forums in the address, there is no problem.

Just got redirected to the Filestore site from my Mac (running Chrome). Here's the Google link that I clicked:

Hello,

Can someone test if the malware issue is still happening?
We have applied another fix..

Thanks!

[Ron]

I can't get it to screw up with any examples given using Chrome 46.0.2490.71 on a WIN 7 Pro SP1 machine or the Android 5.0 lollipop anymore.

Here is one of the few ways to test.
Open an "Incognito Browser". Right click your browser like Google chrome then click Open Incognito Window.
Go to Google.com
Search "dmctalk"
Click any of the forum links in the search results.

Let us know if you get redirected to other sites..

So far no problems, but my company's security settings have wound up blocking http://dmctalk.org/forum.php So you may need to contact content filter providers to give them the all-clear for that URL to be taken off of their blacklist. Strangely enough, the rest of the site comes up no problem. It just seems to be when the URL targets that specific .php file instead of letting the browser default automaticly.

Still OK here (on all three machines, etc).
