« on: October 18, 2009, 01:48:03 AM »

tried logging on to the pinball warehouse webpage (QLD) and it comes up as having a virus / trojan


my antivirus software reports it as:
HTML:Illiframe-C [trj]

Kenny Priest, who is a top bloke, will be pissed if his great website is stuffed up by some idiot hacker. I will have to give him a call.

I think alot of people confuse www.pinballwarehouse.com.au (Ken Priest QLD) WITH www.pinballwarehouse.net.au (Rob Ferguson VIC)

ANYWAYS, two nice blokes, with two totally different companies and two totally diferent websites.

cheers.Caveman

p.s- Beaky, its working fine from my computer and Norton didnt show anything after full scan ? see how others go.  !@#

i think nortons is A: ignoring it
or B: is perverted and taking it  but it does not want you to know its taking it, letting it probe deep inside your hard drive while keeping quite and whispering all of your deep and inner secrets and bank details to the thing that is probing it, but in a couple of days it realises its not perverted and realises what it has done makes it very sick, so sick that it cant live with it self and wont boot up in the morning.  :lol @@*

Definitely coming back with a malicious object found on the page.

Norton's is rubbish, by the way.

That is a Google warning... Hmm, that's not good news!

This means that the Google Spider detected malicious software on the site, so it has marked it as bad.

And yeah, Norton is pathetic. Consistently rated one of the worst in virus, trojan and malicious software detection.

I run avast on mine. It has saved me time after time.
since I have had avast on my pc i have never had to do a format and re install due to a virus(3 years now)
and the best thing its free and when you need to re register after 12 months again it is free.
I also use Zone Alarm to control what contacts the internet and what does not

left a message for kenny priest. i will call him first thing when he opens monday morning.  ^^^

perhaps an enhancement they did on their website to run a new version of java stuffed something up. my computer let me in 2nd time around, after i did a java update from microsoft (or a trojan update from the nigerians). BASTARDS. IF i could only crawl down the phone line and kill a few hackers, it would make my day. *)*  *)* *)*  *)*  *%*

anyway, at least all the members who went to the site found out that their firewalls are working, OR IN SOME PEOPLES CASES, perhaps NOT ?  !@#  !@#

ohhh, and thanks guys for the great vote of confidence in NORTONS ANTI-SPYWARE ETC, it works really well, i just went to my bank accounts, and they only have 1 cent in each. lol. farrrk, i actually will check now, but from ANOTHER computer.my balance better be untouched you bloody nigerians, or i am getting President Obama to nuke you mothers back into the stoneage.  *)*  *)* *)*  *%*  *)*  *)*
