Log-in problems - Update and Warning

Post by bound_jenny »

The forum (and main site) has been fixed - Anna did a superb job - but there are some things that you should know.

The forum and main site were infected with the virus, "JS Downloader Agent". The source, cause and method of infection are under investigation.

Because this implies a virus, it is strongly recommended that all of you scan your computers for viruses as a preventive measure to ensure your computers are clean and safe from problems. The chance of infection is small but non-negligible.

We are truly sorry for the inconvenience and hope that no one sustains any damage to their computers because of this.

Thank you all for your patience and support.

For Anna,

Jenny.

An extra hint after sniffing around a bit:

The JS Downloader Agent virus variants all exploit security holes in ActiveX components used with Internet Explorer.
