Well now, that is an insult to say that this machine wasn't clean before I sat down at it tonight.

Just for giggles and haha's I've DL'd some of the additional scanners I've found in your thread and currently doing full system sweeps just to prove to myself that the current security I have is doing the job it is supposed to be doing.

So far, a few cookies (which I've always had to clean out now and then cuz I don't consider them to be threats so I don't bother blocking them). Heck, myway.mybar hasn't even found it's way back onto my HD yet this year and I usually get to remove it every six months or so.

Ever since the first time this machine was booted up I have only had ONE virus/trogan successfully install itself and THAT was because it made it thru within the first 2 hours after initial boot up when I was all worried about doing some burn in runs and benchmarks (instead of the initial security updates/installs like I should have done first) to see what this baby would really do when the throttle was pinned. I just reformated the HD and started from scratch, and made sure to get it protected first and foremost. Other then that one, this baby has never had an infection other then a few dormant files in the temp folders that always get cleaned up when the system goes thru it's daily, multi program sweep and destroy.

The file found tonight wasn't what I would consider to be a real issue since it was trying to make it's way into the internet temp folder, rather the post was just a whimsical idea of mine after I had just posted a comment on my guild's forums in reply to a thread about this very site's problem with malware. The very next address typed into my browser was eq2flames and the resulting screenshot was because of the irony.

Now I will refrain from jumping into the insult fray with you since I get bored with those who's imagination cannot go beyond variaties of retard etc.....

I will however point out to my fellow forum trolls that the rigorous use of proper protection should always be used because from the moment of conception LFG has been a living example of an alabama hotpocket gone horribly, horribly wrong.

Try not sucking. That helps.

Actually, myway.mybar isn't anything ya gotta worry about, it's more of an annoyance then anything. Apparently though, my current collection of security features doesn't let it slip by anymore since I haven't seen hide nor hair of it for a very long time.

Heck, 1 hardware firewall, 2 software firewalls, 2 virus scanners, 4 adware/malware/etc. programs, and a registry sweeper should be adequate for most systems. Ohhh a middle of the road hacker could make it onto my puter if they wanted to. Heck I even have a "Gamemode" user that I log in as for gaming that only allows the very essentials to load up for ultimate performance while gaming. P2P stuff gets downloaded onto another puter and tested/scanned on that computer before it's allowed on this one. I'm that anal about this machine....

HAHAHA!, Yeah a lot of them come that way. First thing I say to my friends when they want me to come over and flush out a virus for them is. "browsing porn again eh?" The majority of the common nasty lil buggers I've found though come from the "You must install blah blah Active-X plugin to view this site" B.S. I tell everyone I can that unless the site is a VERY, VERY trusted site, to NOT install it and find another site that doesn't require said plugin.

LFG

Vcjester - clean your comp, have a coke and a smile and shut the fuck up. It isn't going to happen again, and has only happened to some people who accessed the site yesterday. I cleaned my shit and it has not happened to me today in 18 hours of spamming this site.

Thank you

Dude. Panties up the ass much? This is the internet and it happens. Be a big boy and clean it up and shut the fuck up.

I'm just now reading this, so I'll chime in with my 2c.

Yes, yesterday there was an advertisement that prompted for ActiveX permission. I had no idea our previous advertising provider was so lax and apologize for any problems it caused. I removed it as soon as I could. This is not a problem that should continue because we moved to a new firm.

That said, a lot of people have a lot of problems with their computers and screen shots like the one posted by the OP contain zero information nor does it indicate where the problem originated. I have nothing to run with there. AV programs pick up a lot of things some of which are very harmless.

If you feel there is a problem (still) feel free to PM me with the details. I use Firefox to view the site and I have had no problems today. (Even though I had multiple pop ups yesterday.) I will keep IE open as well to monitor things on that side.

Ok. have spent the last 15 minutes browsing the site over and over.

Here is the commonality on every time the Active X control request comes up currently.

Any add that has the following at the top:

Fehler:
Flash Counter:
Benutzer gerperrt

I have had the active X control thing pop up ONLY when there is an add with that at the top. So far the following adds have that:

Plantronics Headset Package
Every Element of Motorsport
LMA Manager 2007 for Playstation
and a host of others that I didn't bother to write down.

Now I am using IE7 and am running Panda Internet Security 2007. The Active X controls are being blocked and HUNDREDS of cookies for YeildManager have been disinfected off my machine in the last 30 minutes. All while I have been on this site. So, to stop the problem for me, I donated my $10 even tho I am unemployed ATM ~
