Adern != Badware

Post by Ben Walker »

When I try and visit Adern.com. Firefox tries to block the site as an 'Attack page' and takes me to this page:
http://www.stopbadware.org/firefox?hl=e ... w%26id%3D4

Is it just me?

I've don't think I've installed any Firefox plugins which would enable this Badware blocking. And there doesn't even seem to be a way for me to say 'I trust this domain and all pages within it'.

What a drag.

Oh, and atleast in Chrome you get a "proceed anyway" option :)

You DO get an 'ignore this warning' option, but the warning still pops up for EVERY page within the domain!

Well apparently the site is infected with "JS:Illredir-DH". Its seems to be a trojan, i can find info on others "infected" and how they remove it, but no info on the trojan itself (what it does etc.)

It's because phpnuke is easily exploited. I'll talk to Red about it...I'm sure it'll get fixed soon.
