Redirect/Malware

Recommended Posts

When I try to open this site from home I get redirected to a site that says my computer is infected and I have to call their phone number to have it removed. I just had to quit coming to this site from home. Bing has gotten to where it won't even let me open the site, saying the site contains malware. I have no problem at all logging in from work. Anybody know of a fix for this?

 

Thanks,

I only can say that I got the same thing for the first time last night, but I was not on this site. I was looking for a birthday present for my wife. It was a cross-stitch kit site. I just got out of the site and it didn't happen again. If yours does it each time you get on at home it probably means your home computer has a cookie with that site in it. If you delete all cookies from your computer it might stop it for you.

I use Chrome with Ad Blocker Pro. No issues at all.

I've used Chrome and Explorer and both had some kind of redirect. Different sites, but still a redirect. I'll try going back to Chrome with Ad Blocker Pro. Weird that at work, also through Explorer, I have no issues.

 

Thanks for your replies!

I also can no longer access the forum from work (chrome or IE), it is flagged as containing malware and blocked by the filter. No issues with any other forums that I visit while I'm "supposed" to be working, lol.

 

It is highly plausible that you have redirect code implanted in a skin - this might help: https://blog.sucuri.net/2015/02/analyzing-malicious-redirects-in-the-ip-board-cms.html

 

We had a similar issue hit our jeep clubs forum site, but loading an upgrade made quick work of it (v-bulletin)
