This is terrible...

 

[BlueWeasel]

Yep, he posted the same trap link as a joke in the Hot Deals, Motherboard, and Video forums.....maybe more, but that's all I've seen so far.

 

[jamesbond007]

I'm doing a scan with AdAware 6 right now...has anyone noticed or found any spyware/new programs on their systems or was this just an IE exploit/trick?

 

[BlueWeasel]

It wasn't just an IE exploit....the trap worked on me, and I'm using the latest version of Firefox. An AV scan using EZTrust and the latest update resulted in no viruses found.

 

[SneakyStuff]

what was that? was it a virus? I had to restart, i'm running adaware now, but im kinda worried.

 

[loup garou]

Please ban this idiot. He's posted that stupid link in every forum.

 

[ectx]

He started another thread. Please ban him asap.

It's only an ASCIIGoatse for me, but I'm using Opera.
He's just another spammer who should be banned.

ok i actually sat through the grusomeness long enough to see a window that said something like
eat sh!t google toolbar
if you were using firefox then this sh!t would not happen
no virus no spy or addware just a script kiddy showing off how he or she can defeat the google toolbar popup blocker

 

[SneakyStuff]

But i'm not using the google toolbar? I was just using IE. I mean, i've got every single windows update installed, is it just a script? No harm done?

Big accomplishment. The folks at Dictionary.com, as well as a few other sites have already figured out how to get around the Google Toolbar. Doesn't seem to be really that big a deal.
I didn't stay around long enough to see what the site would do; the ASCII image and the background on the subsequent page prompted me to close the window.

I never remember having a process like that running...but I closed the iexplore.exe process and it took a while, but about 3 seconds later, all the windows closed up and were gone.

Anyone feel like ddosing this fewl to hell?

 

[VirtualLarry]

Was this some kind of trojan inside a giant .bmp file? I think I saw something posted in video, it started taking so long to load over DSL that I closed the window, I started getting suspicious. Do I need to be concerned?

I don't remember which thread or who posted it, sorry. :|
