12ua.com warning on legacy forums

by Thimmy Fri Dec 02, 2011 3:36 am

I was navigating around the forums and suddenly got a message saying that goallegacy.forumotion.com contains content from 12ua.com, a website that's known for distributing harmful software.

"Google has noticed that harmful software may get installed on your computer if you proceed. If you have visitted this website before or trust this website, it's possible that it has recently been compromised by a hacker."

Just thought I'd let the mods and everyone else know.

Download an adblocker in order to not see this kind of problem. It's not related to the forum but to the ads forumotion uses.

Thanks. I have adblocker for firefox, but not for Chrome.

Still, it's a bit weird that I just recently got this warning, when I've been using this site for a few months now.

It usually pops up when someone puts up a signature hosted on one of those sites. Still, I got this warning as well and I have AdBlock for Chrome, which is weird.

Krul is too powerful for this forum to handle.

I got a malware warning for the Young vs. Walcott thread as well.

Really wanted to read it too cause I know there's going to be some utter dross in there.

Well you can just click 'Proceed anyway' :L

one question

to anyone who uses Firefox with AdBlock +

do u still get the warning ?

by •MilanDevil• Sun Dec 04, 2011 5:34 pm

I am using adblock on google chrome and i just got a warning in the marchisio appreciation thread. Here it is
Malware Warning - Page 2 Pictur11

by Luca Sun Dec 04, 2011 6:48 pm

Yeah I'm getting the same warnings, I think people need to start taking their signatures and avatars off of random websites? Is that what is causing it?

by ♠Ace Sun Dec 04, 2011 6:56 pm

I'm not entirely sure if its that signature or avatars.. I got that warning while trying to view my own profile. I don't even have signature or avatar.

I have adblocker on chrome

by •MilanDevil• Sun Dec 04, 2011 7:41 pm

now almost all of the threads in the general section have the same warning pop up when i try to enter them.

by CBarca Sun Dec 04, 2011 7:48 pm

I use firefox and no adblock and I haven't gotten a warning yet Cool

by Lex Sun Dec 04, 2011 8:18 pm

That's 'cos Firefox is for boring, wet people who love monotony

Chrome is for xtreme daredevilz, what with its useless adblocks, minimal virus protection and non-linear functions. It's for people who live on the e-edge

by Rebaño Sagrado Sun Dec 04, 2011 10:17 pm

Damn straight Lex. :mental:

Now its on the Wow vela thread.

I want to see what he did. Mad
