Stay away from Mock - site infected

I saved those links, I will have to check them out, I really don't use any virus protection.

Paid: Kaspersky or Nod32
Free: Avast!

You really should. People love to attack Windows. Granted there are a few out there that get the Mac's but Apple is way up on security issues and you really don't see people talking about viruses and their Macs.

Don't misrepresent. OS X is FULL of security holes. I linked you to them before. The only Reason Mac OS X isn't attacked very often is because it has such a small part of the market share. Windoze owns 90 some percent of the Market Share, and as such 99.9% of viruses target it. The same is true for my Linux as far as less attacked by viruses goes, but it has far better security than Mac or Windoze. Mostly because its used for servers so often, any security holes get patched quickly (hackers attacks) and it has Some of the best AntiViruses out there. I love ClamAV If the Windows version (ClamWin) had an On Access scanner I would recommend it over Avast! any day. Its a far better AV overall.

Well this is the second attack since they re-opened. When I was creating the new forum and had access to Franks' stuff I wound up loaded with viruses. Twice. Once when I helped him with 24 and when I did Mock for him. HE never got an alert so he didn't think it was important. HE used that stupid McAfee too.

Whatever they got is in their files. It was there when they were using the hosting company I recommended when Duchess took it, and now its' the same attack on this new host that moron God (aka arsehole on this site - yes he's a TK member) recommended.
Apparently he does not know what he's doing. Their site didn't need moving due to crappy hosting causing slowness... they need to clean their files. Fucking morons. Wouldn't happen if me or Dylan were helping her.

This. Not to mention they wouldn't be several versions behind on the software. Gee, I wonder how they got infected when they're using a version with a security vulnerability reported on Secundia. Geeze, if "God" was any good he'd keep up with Secundia for any software he manages. Moron. Also, if you look at the link for just the IP, it reports infections with 61, yes 61! sites on that server. Wonderful new host he moved them to, eh?

LOL Nah. It could be anyone. Probably their super smart tech who's handling it for them.

Most likely, since in order to infect the site the way they have they would have to infect the PHP... which means either hacking in or some moron with ftp access opened up. Always fun.

They say it is safe now, but I'm still a little wary to log in. The only people over there are LC, Duchess, and QB anyway. No offense, but they really aren't the funnest people as far as Mock forums go lol.

Why bother anyways? It'll get infected and/or hacked again since they aren't fixing the cause. Besides, we'd rather have you here.

Many of those who were ragging on her are back there now.

Yeah, I remember a certain someone was over here talking shit about her, I believe he said she had hands like snow shovels. Then I saw that the little weasel was kissing her ass over there.

Yeah, now thats funny right there.

I actually did download the free Avast.
So if nothing else, I suppose one good thing came out of all of this.

Just run your Avast nightly. Unless they fixed it so you can set up an auto-run (since I used it last year), you'll have to run the scan manually. Make sure you set it to deep scan all files and to scan all your drives.

Or just set it up in Windows Scheduler

windows scheduler is notorious for not doing what you ask it.

I think it's hysterical how Duchess thinks her asshole tech put "things on the server to protect and prevent" anything from entering again.

The one in Windows 95-ME sure, but the one in XP works fine if you set it up right. Or mostly does. And there's an enhanced scheduler for download too.

Considering he can't do that unless they're on a VPS... thats funny.

Frank was on VPS and I got loaded with shit twice when I was doing the site for him.
