Google Redirect Malware Strikes Again

[Tefka]

We got hit by it again, as those of you unfortunate to be redirected witnessed. Several security precautions have been taken and we've beefed up a lot since the last time it happened.

Please alert us ASAP if you've been redirected, but do not link to the page you've been redirected to. It is vulgar and not PG-13.

TLDR: I think I may have it fixed and found the culprit.

Simply despicable. Glad we have someone so effective and competent to deal with these problems.

 

[Jsc]

Oh good. Something was going on. I got kicked off the site like 4 times today. Probably maintenance on the back end. Thanks for the announcement Tef!

TLDR: I think I may have it fixed and found the culprit.

Kill them. Kill them with fire.

Once again slicers have attacked the Holonet's core infrastructure on Coruscant. The second of such events in recent memory. The Imperial Security Bureau released a statement to the public just minutes ago.

ISB: We've already tracked down the perpetrators to Alderaan. Grand Moff Tarkin has assured us they have already been dealt with swiftly and quietly.

Keep up the good work, I was just redirected a few hours ago, unfortunate but I trust the staff completely to fend off this terrible attacks.

 

[Torvas]

I was kicked off as well; I assumed that had to do with this problem as well. I hope this is the end of it for now!

 

[Kay-Larr]

I was wondering what happened. At least there are people on top of it!

 

[Jsc]

Don't worry people. Tef will either figure it out or blow us all up. Count on it!

 

[Judah Lesan]

Kill them. Kill them with fire.

Kill them with death...

 

[Ultimatum]

Kill it till its dead. :lol:

 

[Torvas]

Hey, I've always been posting in these threads on this issue, so I wanted to take an opportunity to express my thanks. There are a lot of people who work behind the scenes here to make things move smoothly, and I'm really grateful to all of them!

If anyone was affected (i.e; was redirected) I suggest a scan of your temporary internet files and cache, as that is one place where the malware targets.

 

[Jacen Cavill]

[member="Lily Kirsche Kuhn"] literally was just redirected an hour ago. Just saw you warn about scanning, did so and found the malware and destroyed it.

 

[Torjesgo]

Just saw this one as well.
Got shot to the porn site when I first tried to hop in.

 

[Tefka]

I found the code, made some moves tonight.

I'm gettin hit by a bit of malware. Considering it started immediately(this is always the first site i pull up), I think we've been breached again.

There's no way I can confirm anything by just "I'm getting hit by a bit of malware." I'll need you to PM me the details to [member="Tefka"]

Happened again a few minutes ago.

 

[Bradok]

Yeah it happened on my other computer as well, kept sending me to some Ultralink site to shorten urls.
