But now seems OK.

Maybe I am infected and spreading it now.

All very strange. I tried loading CF via Google in case Google's search function tagged CF, but nothing so far. I'll check again in the morning.

I'm also using FF and AdBlock plus. I just got the one message and MS SE removed the exploit. It is a windows thing so you wont see it on Linux. Surprise, surprise.

Also running Win 7 Pro and Security Essentials.

Yeah, the computer I got the message on was running Windows.

Malware in CF

My Sophos a/v picked up a malware transfer from CF earlier today - Mal/HiLoti-D.

The file was isolated.

A deep clean might be warranted at CF Towers....

I had the same problem when I first logged on. IE8 & Nod32. Here's the URL's related to the problem:

Since they are all Java related, suggest you disable it. Looks like the problem originates from a 3rd party advertisement to me.

I got the warning pop up for the sentumi site. It seems as if it opened windows media player and tried to play something. I am in firefox.

Send a message via Skype™ to Dreaming Yachtsman

I also received a warning notice when I logged onto CF this afternoon using IE 8.0 with Norton Internet Security. A screen capture image of the history report in Norton is here:


Thanks to Norton Antivirus.

How can we eliminate that specific threat?

Just completed a full scan and it removed 2 more exploits. They seem to be java related.

Exploit: Java/CVE-2010-0094.P and 2008-5353.QZ
