Malware at Loverslab ?

[Double D]

I've been getting these warnings as well while using Avast. It always seems to happen when I click on a google search result that ends up bringing me here. Figured it had to be the ads. Anyway, I had no idea what this NoScript extension is but I see it's for Firefox. Are there any good alternatives for chrome?

[gvman3670]

This is what Microsoft Security Essentials just told me was here. It did it a couple days ago, too. And it can show up with AdBlock Plus running.

 

Just a heads up.

[ChancellorKremlin]

My avast has just flagged it up too. Before it was just google search results but now it's just navigating the site. Added it to the exclusions but doesn't seem to have had any effect, had to turn the bloody shield off!

[AwfulArchdemon]

Time to ditch Avast, it seems. That and Norton flag everything. Uninstalled Norton over it (not that I chose to install Norton in the first place). Just SuperAntiSpyware Professional for me (for now)

I use Kaspersky... but also AdBlock with FireFox. Kaspersky has dangerous websites blocker but that is always going out of date with every Firefox update..

To be fair, we know that there is potential malware left around from the infected ad server, so these aren't false positives. So Avast is just terminating connection when pages are detected with malware on them. So I'd say that Avast is worth keeping since it's doing it's job and preventing viruses.

[AwfulArchdemon]

Fair enough, but I figured it would only be beneficial if the ads were flagged when clicked, not the whole damn site.

[AwfulArchdemon]

I don't think there is. One of us could make one, I suppose. Seems like a rather professional thread to have on any site. Malware warnings are not exactly common here, but still. Couldn't be considered a "bad idea". If the OP altered the title, this could be it.

 

About the ads, I meant the pages the ads were on at the time. I basically consider it "the whole site", because ads don't stay fixed on one page. Also, it would only make sense for the AV to give the warning when someone clicks the ad, unless it was so well-made that it turned the whole page into an auto-download situation (of the malware), which would be new to me, and rather surprising/disturbing, and admittedly, almost impressive (in a terrible, wanna kick his ass kinda way).

I just got this when I went from a thread in Skyrim Non-Adult to the forum list.

Found the source, it's been removed now and I've secured a few things. 

 

If it happens again, the only thing that's really going to help track it down is if you post the html source code of the page directly after any such warning.

[Demonwise]

Well in Chrome you can just right click on the page and hit View Page Source and it should open a new tab with the source code.

I would pay to join the community if it removed the ads.  They are not always to my liking and limit where I can look at the pages.  I don't really care about the content, since I am here, but the world does and it limits where I can look at the site.  Any chance of making a membership option?

If you're worried about strangers seeing those ads then use an ad-blocker extension for your browser.  When viewing the site in public, turn the blocker on and off when at home.

 

OR

 

For the low, low cost of 1 freshly baked, French apple pie, I can come over to your place and put duct tape over strategic areas of your monitor to hide the ads from prying eyes. 

[aloevera5]

Ok ok adblocker it is  The ads move around, duct tape didn't work

[myuhinny]

Or mosaic blurring where ever the ad goes the blurring follows and stops right on top of it.

I bet EA could help.

Eventually.

 

Enough people ask about such an option that it's more or less inevitable at some point. I can entirely sympathize with the want to support a site but be incredibly wary over a sites use of adult ads. It's something I've been especially considering including lately, what with the upcoming major site upgrades to ipb4. If/when I eventually do offer it, it would probably be something real cheap like $3/month to disable all site ads and download limits. And if I'm able to hack it in I'd like to make it provide the site ad-free regardless if the member is logged in or not, making it ad-free from top to bottom. 

 

It's not as easy as just throwing it up though. Most well known "trustworthy" payment handling sites, such as Stripe or PayPal, have strict rules against allowing pornographic sites due to branding and possible high risk. Leaving pretty much just the payment processors that I'd feel real skeevy about making use of on LoversLab, such as CCBill (vomit), I wouldn't personally trust them, nor would I feel good about associating LoversLab with such sites.

 

Eventually, maybe. I don't know. If/when it happens it won't be till I can figure out how to do it in a worthwhile way for members, and safely for both of us.

If you don't like ads, Adblock is your friend. It's free and works fine. I've never understood why people complain about annoying ads any more. I like to support good communities, and I like this community, but I've gotten one too many malicious popups and annoying redirects in the past from other sites; I've even gotten a trojan from a Wikia ad. After all that, I'd rather keep it all ad-free. I don't blame LL or other sites though. Regulating what sponsors can and can't put on your website is really difficult if you want to keep the cash flowing, and sometimes those sneaky bastards will drop some PUPs or adware into their adverts.

[marxman1313]

i have reason to believe there is malwere to as this whole  week firefox has been crashing contently whenever
im on nexus or here at ll and its been geeting worse each day infact i had to pre type this on notepad just to
post this comment

 

not to mention both sites have been poping up ads in window form tab form and just plain pop ups

 

all of them advertizing this CNET thing

[marxman1313]

and then there is the fact that there is aparently a virus that asoon as it gets into yer pc deletes your anti viruses "virus dictunary* and the only way to detect and delete it is to scan yer pc with another infact my pc got buged with it and i had to get my dad to use his pc to get rid of it and the month befor that his pc had it and he had to use one of his older ones to get rid of it

[myuhinny]

Sounds to me like you already have things already on your computer. I would suggest running Malwarebytes anti Malware remover. To get any malware/spyware that is on your computer. It is free. http://www.malwarebytes.org/Also run a good virus remover as there might be some of that on there as well. I don't use FF so not sure if they did a update or not I use chrome.

moved cause i posted it in the wrong place-

 

for the past few days whenever i open the thread for "non-sexlab animations" in the "downloads-sexlab framework" forums to check for updates my antivirus sounds an alarm and says its blocking a url virus. this is what it says its blocking "http ://allannaa.byethost12.com/randomimage/mywuffielittle.jpg". no idea what it is but some1 might want to check it out. i know its not in the "non-sexlab animations" mod itself cause i use it with no problems and it scanned clean.

 

this is all i clicked on- http://www.loverslab.com/topic/38870-non-sexlab-animation-pack/and it pops up. 

and i just did it again to get that url to post and i found out its actually blocking 2 files. both start out the same just diff jpg filename

It's coming from Allannaa's signature link. It's their doggie picture. In this thread here someone had that same issue and I see what it is. For some reason avast hates that site and Allannaa explains that everything hates that site because of something that happened years ago.

 

From that page:

 

 

It's a link to their personal web space. I'm not getting any errors for anything when I go there. Avast is just being mean to you I imagine. From what I've been reading it's gotten really finicky on lots of things that have no reason.

 

hmm, just done some rooting around, looks like the byethost12 is being blocked by avast completely, seems a lot of others are getting the same thing from searches I've done.  Seems to be from other sites on the domain carrying trojan's and such from what I have quickly read on a google search.

 

That's not to say I think ally has any but well, it dosen't look like avast likes the host site at all.

 

 

Byethost has had that issue for ages.  I've reported it to the tech support guys and all that.  No one seems to know why Avast blocks it.  It's blocked by FB too.  Apparently, at some point in their distant past, one of their customers was doing naughty hacker things.  We're talking distant past like, 9 years back when it first came out.  But the trouble is, it's one of few sites that allows erotic content, and some of my art is most assuredly in that category.... So I keep using it.  My own Avast doesn't freak out, but I remember Avira did once.

 

I'd host the wuffie avatar somewhere else, if there was anywhere else I could host it.  And I'm open to ideas.

 

And I don't mind thread hijacks.  Obviously. LOL
