Forums - Sony - trojan virus for clicking on vgchartz?

Yeah, this is absolutely ridiculous. If the admins stopped whoring themselves out to dodgy ad companies none of this would be happening, it's just giving the site a bad reputation. Seriously, stop this shit now.

Then there would be no point in running the site.  The site exists for its owners to make money and selling ad space and the store is how they do it.

 

I don't care if the site has ads, most do. What I do care about is that every time I go on this site it tries to inject a trojan into my system.

 



Around the Network

I've occasionally had my Mac firewall ask if I want my Opera to accept connections from the 'net when visiting this site, so there's definitely something fishy going on. Also, the site causes Safari on iPhone to totally freezem forcing me to do a hard reboot. It worked fine a week ago, though, so this is something new.



We're trying everything we can to solve it. We're very sorry for the inconvenience.

For now I advise you to use Firefox, since this will block the content, but we hope to have it under control. PM me or DKII if you keep having problems. 

In any way we're not whoring, anyone who says that doesn't have a clue what it costs to run a site like this.

To be very clear here: Everyone on the staff, including ioi, works voluntarily for VGChartz and has a job or a study.
