It's worse for me, too! I have a feeling that ioi is never going to fix it. :(

IOI
Me W29: Can everyone wait patiently, ioi will have the site up and running properly he is only one guy doing this himself. I'm waiting and I have no problem. Just stop rushing him.
Hello
I confirm it, its worse now.
Until today if was browsing vgchartz with firefox (with noscript and java addons), i had no problems. With IE, it was trojans fest.
Today for the first time, even with firefox, nod32 is detecting a trojan...
I have faith in you ioi but act quick because if this virus thing is not your number one priority at the moment, this site is gonna fall apart. :(
Bye.

Well thanks for the heads up, if you feel like your not protected and virus are going wild on your computer, feel free to step away from the site for a few days or weeks, depending on your prefrence. Thanks! 8)

If it's just the forums, delete it and start over.

I have made the header read-only, I have changed ftp passwords, looked for php holes but can't find anything as yet. If anyone has any ideas then let me know! Also if people can let me know what problems they are having, when they occur, what warnings they get and so on then I can try different things to fix it. Thanks ioi |
Usualy when stuff like this occurs it's due to having FTP access which is insecure or admin logins to the server which are insecure. I suggest you change all of your logins and if you have FTP access to the server. Turn it off! If you want help with this problem send me a private message and I'll discuss various ways to protect the site.
Prepare for termination! It is the only logical thing to do, for I am only loyal to Megatron.

because just FF didn't work it in my case. no script and adblock seem to work. typing and eating supper/breakfast is awkward.'

What ever company is hosting your server should be able to track what IP address is modifying what file. At that point you can either take legal steps or the company should be able to block that perticular IP.
