Default Avira Alert For Amiga.org

Hi All,

On my Windows XP machine my AV, Avira Anti-Virus 10.0.0.567 has just started complaining when I visit this site. Is this a false positive? (I'm assuming it is.) The infected file details are very vague and I can't find a proper description online of the type of infection.

Any ideas anyone? I've attached a couple of sreenshots.

Thanks,
Robin.

I'm not so sure. Amiga.org had been infected with the "brutal dildo" thing for an unknown period of time. They just fixed that a day or two ago.

Maybe this is related?

Back in my day, we didn't have water. We only had Oxygen and Hydrogen, and we'd just have to shove them together.

Quick look through the source code and no "brutal dildo" stuff.

This however is the first line of the html code:

Yeah, got it on my Win7 and avira combo, too. I'm guessing it's more than likely just a false positive.

Yes, there is an unpatched vBulletin exploit that has hit a number of forums so far. There is a thread about it at Moo Bunny:
http://moobunny.dreamhosters.com/cgi...a/174104.shtml

If anyone can reach Pyromania or the other mods quickly then please do so. I don't see any of them online at the moment.

Until this problem is fixed, feel free to use the old browser proxy:

http://aoproxy.extropia.co.uk

I've added a snippet of code to eliminate the iframe from the page and removed the automatic redirect to the main site for modern browsers. You can see the effect in the page source:

Code:
<!-- http://amiga.org/forums/search.php?do=getdaily : retrieved in 0.593s --> 
<!--

Unfortunately the iframe output breaks the page with respect to header based redirects, so you'll still see the "redirect" page when you click on "new posts" and the like, but I have confirmed the iframe is not present in any content that is passed through the proxy code.
