That's OK Dave, as far as I understand it the internet is just a series of tubes...

Granted it might be because the site has been taken down, but IE, Firefox, and Safari in XP all brought up the site with no problems. OS X was fine too over the past few days, so it wasn't related to the recent Mac Java exploit (no pop-up window asking for an Admin password for Terminal code being executed in the background).

Did anyone get a warning as to what the specific malware was?

Not sure how many folks here are running the Ubuntu or Mint flavours of Linux, but if you have Domain Blocker installed, you can simply block mavmor.in and use the forum as usual. You could also edit (gedit) /etc/hosts and assign mavmor.in to 127.0.0.1.

I'm a Lubuntu guy myself, ever since they started using the Unity DE in Ubuntu. Seems like the threat is pretty minimal though, if it's just bringing up a blank page.

After talking to vbulletin tech support, I've removed the bad script, so all should be good now. And an upgrade will probably take place tonight, so forum may be down for a short time period later tonight.

Thanks, Tamir!

Forum back up. Apologies for the longer than stated delay. Server issues hampered my backup, and after fixing the malware issue, I wanted to ensure a clean backup to avoid any other issues that may arise with updating software later, etc.

All should be good for now, thank you for your patience.

I've been making money servicing 8-Track players. Of course I have NO IDEA what any of that means. Though, if the repair shop is right, I need a new computer troll in order to get to the internet.
