Second time I have got this warning when opening my bookmark to Flyertalk Forums. (Hopefully the pic posts.... I really have no clue) |
It has happened again, just now. This time the address was changed to (partial listing, to avoid the hyperlink), "http://" followed by the words
utilitywarderdefender.pl \ followed by numbers. Interesting thing, however, about the numbers in the string. From "/ss/" on--i.e., "/ss/78dee9e271084" (etc.), the numbers are identical as to what they were before. I.e., what changes now in the address bar are, first, the words, "utilitywarderdefender," and secondly, the numbers following those words, up to the "/ss/--etc," at which point the numbers are the same as in the earlier hyperlink. |

So is flyertalk going to do something about this? I'm pretty sure its a rogue banner ad script. They need to alert whoever provides their banner ads that there is a bogus ad causing malware popups. Looks like doubleclick.net to me.

Would that cause the screen to freeze? I have to turn my laptop off whenever the pop-up appears, as nothing works any longer, can't even exit the screen with Ctrl Alt Del.
|
I'm getting the same thing on two computers. Both running IE on Win7 and as with others only when I visit FT.
|
I'm at least able to run task manager and then close out the IE windows which are causing the problems.
Running Windows 7 |
Just happened to me as well.

I have encountered too. It seems to me that this happens if my mouse is in the wrong place at the wrong time. It seems the mouse triggers some action which brings up the site. This always happens when the page is loading.
No log entries in Norton. What is one supposed to do and not do when this happens? I guess clicking that OK on the dialogue box would be a bad idea, right? Thanks. |

I am now getting jetcomp.exe Application errors. Running NAV full scan now but I almost thinkg Norton might not know anything about this...

Just happened again. Anyone know how to make this thing stop?

I do get a log entry in Norton for every one of these and I get a pop-up alert saying it stopped an attack. Even posted a couple of partial log entires earlier in the thread. Every scan I have run for this problem has come back clean. |
