    [Solved] Warning!: Possible Trojan attacking MeizuMe community!

    Hello guys
    Just recently I just tried visit here, but then my avast On-Access scanner suddenly pops with a warning that a Trojan was just heading my pc.
    I really think that whole MeizuMe is infected right now these hours. Hopefully ErrOr is already working on fixing it, just yet no thread was made about it.

    If you haven't noticed any warnings from here today, I really recommend you check up your pc for infections. No good to know what these things do to your personal informations.

    From my report, it this time seem to have place in Russia.

    My words of MeizuMe today.

    Ok then. When I use IE8, avast Home Edition report me about this Trojan. Cannot find much about it right now but from the small log and screenshot is what I have.

    With Firefox I do not get any reports.

    Hmm I don't know why I came to this idea, might sound a little weird. Currently I'm still one that mostly using the old layout of MeizuMe. When I change back to the new black layout, the reports suddenly stops. Maybe you should change to that classic skin for once like me where I experience this behavior. It just that avast reports me every time I reloading a page.


    My Platform:
    Internet Explore version: 8.0.7100.0
    Firefox 3.5.7
    Windows 7 RC - Build 7100
    avast home edition 4.8

    Screenshoot:

    Computer n00b here, but doesn't .js stand for JavaScript? Do you have some ad-blocker on FF, that obviously won't work on IE8?
    I use Opera and block lotta things, like JS, and I don't get this message. McAfee's SiteAdvisor doesn't give a warning.

    usually in cases like this, it is the advertisements that are causing the problem. There could be one or two ads that have js embedded into them.

    Got same thing in my head, it probably just that. Also it could be a false warning but better check it out to be sure.
    For testing the system I installed both opera and google chrome. To note I use no adds for any of my browsers. Both of these gave me the warning too with the old layout since it's still here.

    EDIT: I checked with a second pc with chrome. Same thing, even chrome itself came with a warning. But only first when I login.
    Some must be getting this other than myself. anyone?

    A while back, we were running an older version of the forum software where there was an exploit. We had injections into our templates, and I removed them for the new skin. Now I've removed them from the Classic skin as well.

    Thanks for the heads up!
