Folks I am seeing some odd behavior from my AVG virus scanner when accessing the site.

Is anyone who is NOT running AVG seeing any issues?

Thanks

I am seeing it on IE and FF too, but inconsistently. I have the host admins looking into it.

My apologies for any inconvenience.
 
I just got the following alert from my companies software.

Interesting. I'm inside the WellsFargo network and for as locked down and AV software loaded up as we are, I don't have any issues from here either. My post earlier was from home with no issues.

Using Chrome with Symantec Endpoint here and MS Security Essentials at home.
 
Nothing on mine with McAfee. Only problem I have is the little 18 month old grandson push key to me the computer make noise. That and he thinks I have a touch screen on my laptop. Little worm.
 
My computer at work is infected with something. It's behind firewalls and AV software.

It's been prompting for unknown updates and hard drive failure. My desktop is also gone (it's actually all been hidden based on what I've found)

Microsoft Forefront has scanned and found two things, then was clear, then everything started again!

Not sure if it came from here but whatever it is it's nasty!

FYI this has been sent from my iPhone.

Got a AVG Expolit Black Hole. I loaded IAP through google typing in Penturnners.org and it was ok until I click on the IAP logo then AVG Exploit Black Hole came up again. I am now on the IAP through Google.
 
I have the AVG warning of Blocked Site Due to Exploit Backhole type 2170. I am only able to get in from Work system which is behind Many Protections and very limited on what on theinternet i am allowed to get to. Seems very Strange.
 
Xp pro, google chrome w/adblock and avast allows access without problems or warnings.

Online URL scans by Comodo and Avg threatlabs will not run the site
 
this may not help but i have ms esstienals ( not spelleds right) an di have not had any trouble but when i was using avg i had all kinds of trouble not just with iap but just about eveery site that i went on.
 
got a popup that Norton caught something, but it was a quick popup and I didn't really see much other than it stopped a malicious something or other.

here it is from my history -

Web Attack: Malicious Toolkit Website 14
Risk High
Attacking Computer 37.59.198.61, 80
Attacker URL ghijowelt.org/?91be29002741ceea...

I'm running firefox.
 
My computer is infected with Win32/fakesysdef

I'm behind fire walls and am using Microsoft Forefront Security (administered by our IT department). I use Internet Explorer 9.

My computer is currently in the (remote) hands of IT to clean it up.

No idea if it originated here, but the timing of this thread would suggest that it did.

Certainly that's possible, but I hope not. Hackers are a rotten bunch, aren't they?

That's being WAY too polite Jeff!

I'm still surprised it got through on my work computer, our IT department shuts us off from everything and some.

It seems to be fixed now, it was embedded in 4 locations.

Hopefully it didn't originate here and no one else has had to go through this today.

Well, seems that there is a thing going on against any forum about pens, The Fountain Pen Network has been down also.
 
Malware Warning

The warning from AVG comes only when I go to "Home" (root) part of the site. It does not when going to other directories. It must be something in the root of the site that triggers the warning. BTW this comes only on Opera and not other browsers. All the browsers are the latest ones, with all the patches applied.

Browser's fault

I've forgotten that this is a work machine and I do not have AVG at all on this. I have Trend Micro OfficeScan on this computer. Must be something to do with Opera...
