    The adbot is rotating all kinds of different web sites. You can spend all day editing your hosts file blocking them... but odds are it will still keep rolling. Every time you go to a new page here the script is executing and refreshing itself.

    Which is why you need to block the script...and the site that generates the script. And the hosts file can't do that.

    No doubt that this crap probably is slowing down the site to some extent... as all spam slows down the net in general, which is why it should be a death penalty offense, in my opinion, since this amounts to cyber-terrorism far more than anybody downloading a goddamn song or movie, or whatever.

    I've just got the blue bar popping up again. Sure spamming is a pain in the ass... but who do they think they could fish here, really?

    That's a good temporary user solution...

    I'm more concerned that this board has been compromised... at the moment this may be just a nuisance. But... now that the idiots have a foot in the door something much more malicious could be just waiting to spawn.

    I'm no expert but a temporary fix could be to just comment out the line I posted previously from the main html code source.

    No... but I generally don't go to porn sites while on the kitchen computer. Is there a firefox add-on to block the dick pic portions on porn sites?

    Everything I've mentioned in this thread is "band-aid solutions" for the end-users, of course. Obviously Sarge is going to have to look at the code and see where this shit is originating from to solve the real problem, but in the mean time, running Firefox with the appropriate plugins is the best way of avoiding the headaches.

    I have a feeling that the guilty party is monitoring this very thread to watch the reactions. If that's the case, pray that I never meet you in person, shit for brains.

    My best suggestion there would be to only surf Lesbian porn sites, where there are no dick pics at all.

    I haven't seen any porn yet, but I've kept this new computer porn free so far. Sure miss fisting.com though!

    Whatever tonight's big news is I'm sure doesn't pertain to me; so, I'll check back in a few days and see if everything's cool again!

    The hosts file will work. Your browser is forced to look for that server
    on your PC, which of course it doesnt exist. This technique has been used
    by top networking engineers since IP netowrking was invented.


    VA if you tried that and it worked, then stopped working,
    checkout your PC, the hosts file is a favourite target of virus/spyware/malware.

    If you're running Firefox with the plugins mentioned above, or have the hosts file configured as previously described, you'll never see it. If you don't block it, worst case scenario is that your computer slows to a crawl while all this shit is loading, and your dogs see something they shouldn't see.

    As far as I know, there's no permanent damage to your computer from this crap. Just annoyance.

    The only other thing I can think of, regarding the hosts file, is that you should probably reboot after modifying it. Firefox will automatically prompt you to restart the browser, if you add the plugins.

    Yeah, good point, although closing all browsers and then reopening should force
    browser to look at modified hosts file, but if you are running a non MS browser, reboot
    would be good advice. I would recommend editing that file with all browsers closed,
    and make sure you save it exactly as you opened it, dont save it as .txt file or
    else it wont work. Overwrite the original with no renaming or filetype changes.

    The code seems to be in the footer which in vBulliten is probably a separate include file and probably has a few different scripts that contribute to "rendering" the final footer section.

    The code is literally embedded right after the "Archive" link on the footer menu at the bottom of the page and it's that one script that seems to be fucking responsible for all this shit.

    Find out what's gotten into the footer and there's the culprit.

    hope that helps..

    Also just thought of something, for those that HOST's file works then doesnt.
    The hosts file is a windows system file, if you have the windows "auto restore system
    file" or any sort of auto restore function running, it will auto magically set it back the way it was before
    you edited it... VA, this could why yours worked/didnt work. I would think Win7
    would have that system file restore feature on by default.

    Sorry guys. I have been at work all day long. I just checked the footer file, and indeed... it was hacked into.
    I removed the javascript and it looks fixed.
    I now need to find out what happened

    Guys,
    I would never spam you like that. Thanks for the emails today from those concerned. If you ever see any popups here, rest assured that we have been hacked.

    thanks sarge.

    I was a bit confused and worried. I'd understand if we needed cash from banner ads, but this one didn't seem like a legit one. good that this was taken care of.
    Still waiting for a relevant Browns Team

    Thanks Sarge - I figured as much - but glad it's fixed. The next six days looks to see a lot of traffic around here; want the Army running tip-top.

    My guess it was Hagar.
    My karma just ran over your dogma.

    Hagar needs to be blamed even if it wasn't him.

    Nah, if it was him, all the ads would have been for cheese, McDonalds, and Cabo Wabo tequila.
