OK, Well, seeing as a few select people seem to be getting a virus warning when on LO, we need to look a little deeper into this.
Before reporting any virus instance, please ensure that you
Virus scan your PC
Clear your temporary internet files
Clear your internet Cache
Clear your cookies
Run a Spyware scanner (such as Ad-Aware) on your PC
From now on when reporting a virus on LO please provide;
Name and Version (including Service Packs) of your Operating System
Name and Version of your webbrowser
Name and Version of your virus scanner (including when your virus definitions were last updated)
The Exact virus message you recieve
Which pages you get the warning on.
All posts not made in this fashion will be deleted.
Well, i've recieved the J/S wonka warning several times, both on my home computer and on the network at college. I cannot give exact details, but it's pretty damn accurate:
Info: At home Operating system: Microsoft Windows XP home edition, service pack 2. Browser: BT yahoo! browser 2005 Virusscan: Mcafee security center, updates no less frequent than every week. Virus message: A Trojan "J/S Wonka (and then a few numbers)" has been detected and cleaned! It is recommended you scan your files for viruses, click here to do so, or here to learn more about this trojan. Which pages: Not the LO frontpage, but any quicklinks into a topic, and any topics in general discussion. Also sometimes it has appeared in conversion.
At college Operating system: Microsoft Windows XP, service pack 2 Browser: Internet explorer Virusscan: Don't know, will find out tomorrow and edit Virus message: "VIRUS WARNING: J/S Wonka was blocked" or something like that Which pages: Mostly the same as above, also once in General announcements.
Windows XP Office Edition
Symantec Antivirus - I check for updates several times a day
Microsoft IE
Analysis: I clicked on main forums and got the virus notification. Virus was automatically deleted by my antivirus. Every page I click, including the one to reply here I got the virus deleted message from my antivirus. Virus is Download.Trojan
Am running a scan right now and will edit post later to tell you if it is gone.
Edit: The virus scan completed and nothing is left of the trojan on my computer. I still am getting the notification.
It scares me when you put smilies in your response to this issue... It makes me feel as if you are saying "Psh, deal with it cause I don't really care." It would be less scary if you dealt with this in a more serious manner. I'm not trying to be critical... it's just a tad scary is all. :ninja:
I have removed the malicious code and I might have found the reason why it keep returning all the time, lets wait and see, but it should be gone for now
Even though Blackhat solved the problem just for 'protection' no one should visit Librarium Online unless there anti virus software is up. I wouldn't worry to much, but better be safe then sorry. :yes:
