Forum has a virus?

[ch1mp]

Just a heads up. Every time i tried to come on the forum today my antivirus has always redirected me to a safe page coz it has detected a trojan. Don't really know who to write to so hopefully this gets to the correct people.

[hakhawk]

my anti virus says nothing. get your pc fixed.

[HoZy]

What is Anti-Virus?

That thing that does no good but slows your PC down? Sounds like it just wants more attention to me.

Sounds like YOU have a browser hijacker.....

[acarmody]

Something wrong with your end mate, mine says nothing.

[Jesterarts]

Forums works fine on my work machine, home desktop, phone and latop.

Browser hijacker sounds like the likely cause.

Thanks,

[acarmody]

Well I mean the forums does have some viruses, but every time a mod bans him he makes another account.

As already said above, this is not a JC forum issue, clearly your PC is infected, therefore the correct people in this case would be your local PC doctor or similar.

[nathanVY]

Eh? Viruses don't concern us mac users

[vzchick77]

nope mine is safe as just ran the scanner while on here and not a problem my end

[ch1mp]

well i went to a mate's house and had a look and the same thing happened. both computers i tried on (sister's and mate's) i used Mozilla. Right now i'm using Google Chrome on my own computer and have had no issues

[ClairBear]

Did it occur to you that as mates/family you are sharing files/links/emails and therefore have infected each other?

[CSP]

Hey ch1mp, where are you located? Might help determine the problem.

Trend Micro HouseCall - Free Online Virus and Spyware Scan - Trend Micro Australia

Run this, let us know the results.

I used to have the same problem on my favourite gaming site, it would redirect me to some Netherlands website about some computer scan.

I did a little research and I found out I had a browser hijacker and the the "free scan" that you have to download actually installs trackers and loggers.

I didn't fall for it although it was a pain in the ass as no anti virus or spyware could detect the browser hijacker and it took me about a week of searching the internet for how to get rid of it.

When i tried logging into JCs this morning (for the first time in ages), it came up with a "this site has been temporarily locked and you need to fill out a survey for our sponsors before going ahead" and had JCs forum locked and i couldn't get into it. I went into it a little but didn't put in any of jy info where it wanted it, so i got out and went in thru another link and it let me in.

Tried it again after lunch (now) and it did the same thing again, this time i just hit the "back" button and it took me to the front JC screen where i sign in on........really weird.

I am also having problems when getting linked to jc.It only happens when i do a google search and come up with a jc link(like if i do search for commodore vr transmissoin)it redirects me to a my file website.

[WogBoyz]

No problems for me

[WNTDVT]

Exactly the same issue for me. No problems coming directly to the site, only when linked through a google search.

[soop]

I just tried to go through a google link and this is what I get:



If I access the forum any other way its fine.

[CSP]

I just Googled "Just Commodores" and the 4th link is the forum link. I clicked on it and got the same as soop.

Using a bookmark or just typing in the address works fine though.

Suffice to say I will never disable adblock! Browsing is so much faster and cleaner without ads!

I saw that a few days ago! Can't remember if it was JC or not that. I just laughed when I saw it what a joke, YEAH SURE.

hahaha


EDIT: If you are not using firefox or chrome with adblock plus installed you are wasting your time.
