Site issues

I'm going to clean out the cookies and temp files and see if that helps. Already rebooted my cable modem.

Have a program that cleans out cookies, temp files, browser history and a bunch of other crap. Generally on a cleanup it removes about 250 MB of junk. Pages are still loading slow and when I get to a new page it is unresponsive for about 8-10 seconds before I can navigate it. Same thing for the mouse arrow to change to the pointy hand when trying to click on something.

Why is there a report button over with the quote and top button and all it does is take you to the top of the page just like the top button? :blink:

anyone know what's causing my computer to either slow down or sometimes freeze up on the volnation site and then almost force-close the window on its own?

Man, I clicked on the Random Thoughts thread in the endzone and got a rogue antivirus download. I got rid of it with Malwarebytes but somehow it had enabled the proxy server box in my LAN settings so I couldn't get online. Had to spend the last hour or so waiting for tech support people to point me there. That sucked bigtime.

Very odd. With all of the prcautions uce taken lately, I don't see how it could be coming from here. Plus I've not heard of anyone else having issues. Do you remember a particular page you were on? I will go back through that thread and see if I can identify anything suspicious looking.

Did it again about an hour ago (while Malwarebytes was running) cleaned it out and knew what to look for this time when I couldn't get online. I don't know what to say. I was in the endzone again, forget what thread.

Freak it happened to me last night as well. I was clicking on The Topic that will never die and my IE froze the moment I clicked on it. And I had this software also get into my computer, I started my computer in safe mode and removed it, could not remove it in normal mode. I wouldn't have thought to link it to this site until I saw hmannys post. Still can't say it's related, but it happened when I clicked on the thread.

I can tell you it was Antivirus Soft. I really don't get how it came onto my computer when I didn't "download" anything. Very weird...again I don't know if it came from this site or not, but I'd just thought I'd let you know it happened to me as well.

That must be how I picked up the same thing. Was it the Anitspyware Soft? It took me forever to clean it off my system.

edit: Windy answered that question! That malware HAS to be illegal. I was so angry when it happened. It locked up my entire system. I couldnt do anything!

It seems to be something common to the endzone. I don't know if it could be embedded into a pic, post, or avatar somehow. There is nothing on our server that is 'malware' related so if it's coming from here, it almost has to be from a post or a picture.

Any other details you guys can provide will be helpful in determining if this is, in fact, somehow attached to a post or thread in the endzone.

:hi:

The last time I experienced this, this was the problem.


Trojan.fakealert.caw

Futher detail:

Trojan.Fakealert.CAW


My security system explains it this way, if it helps.... The affected file:

C:\users\ "me"\appdata\local\microsoft\windows\temporary internet Files\low\content.IE5\1dotof6e\inst[1].exe

I don't have IE5. I have IE8


From the last time I remain uncertain about whether this is what you all were experiencing. But it work for me when they detected it.

Hope it helps!

Happened to me again tonight at about 8:15 central. I'm starting to think it might be coming from the links in the "This is for anyone who thinks they are having a bad day" thread in the Pub. It only happens in the pub I believe. Maybe the endzone as well.

I'm scared of the endzone and pub. Can you email me when the rogue antivirus trojan malware is gone?

With only two people having issues hman, I'm not convinced it's coming from here. No one else appears to be having issues and I can't find anything out of line on my end. I will certainly keep looking.

Multi-tasking always get you in trouble, ya know?

It has to be the Endzone bc I pretty much just hang out in there! I am a "Zonie" or "Zoner" whichever you please!
