Google thinks the BN forum might contain malware??????

When using Google Chrome browser, it brings up a warning that this site may contain malware???? Might want to look into it. It might just be a listing error within Google, or it might be the server that hosts other sites has malware. Either way, thought you guys should know.

Maybe its really warning people that this site has JP and BUB around as well as tons of ery...

Just sayin....

Thanks for the warning. I spotted this this evening and went to work on it right away. It appears to have been some sort of exploit in one of the ads. I never did get to see exactly which one, though the payload looks like it is missing from the host site already, so this one seems benign.

It has been reported to adbrite, and since then I've refreshed & revisited a ton of times and haven't seen it again. It looks like they took it out of rotation.

I had the same problem using Google Chrome. An ad actually took control of my browser and opened a completely different ad site. I immediately closed the browser and started over. Had I thought about it I would have taken note of the site that hijacked my browser. Thanks for the fix Code!

I had noticed this too. A new window opened with adds two times when I visited the forum. One was for locating singles in your area if that helps any. If it's already taken care of though I guess it doesn't matter and I will stop rambling.

for those that DID have this problem. It is always a good idea to run an anti-malware software to clean it up. I used Malwarebytes and it found it and all is good now. You can download a free copy of Malwarebytes at a number of sites like download.com and others.

Defense in depth is the best principle-
Run more than 1 of them. I use malwarebytes, adaware, an spywareblaster (which completely blocks out certain malware sites completely). You can find them all via google.

CCleaner is also a good program to run occasionally to flush the crap out of your temp files.
