If you actually took the time to read my post before mouthing off you would have seen that I stated that it was poor old uufta.

yep, I got the redirect when I tried to view a PM from him just a minute ago
damn I have deleted cookies and temp 4 times already,

Jack, I couldn't read it... as the second I clicked the thread, McAfee came up with a trojan warning, and I hit "delete" and it IMMEDIATELY took me to Tripod.

I had to fight it off... By keeping the McAfee thing open, dunno how much harm that did to my PC.

@ uufta

I've killed the script in your signature.

**drfsupercenter** · 27 Mar 2006, 12:57 AM

I got a new idea... maybe Admin could enforce this:

In a signature, if ANYTHING links to *tripod* (or similar), then to remove the link from it, so as to not have that happen.

**cynthia** · 27 Mar 2006, 12:59 AM

uufta's sig is killed - it only contained that link.

So he should be ok now.

**drfsupercenter** · 27 Mar 2006, 01:02 AM

But who says others won't be infected soon? Not sure who this guy was, but it sounds bad.

**uufta** · 27 Mar 2006, 01:03 AM

thank YOU cynthia, should I get outa here, until this blows over, I trashed my Avatar, it wouldnt let me edit my sig
this is crazy,
sorry if I brought it all back in

**drfsupercenter** · 27 Mar 2006, 01:04 AM

No problem... I just think that script should be automatically removed... maybe Admin could take care of that.

PS - anyone else get a McAfee warning, or is it just me?

**Chewy** · 27 Mar 2006, 01:07 AM

user cp/edit signature

**cynthia** · 27 Mar 2006, 01:08 AM

If you want to stay out of the problems - change the setting in your personal User CP and change the setting for "show signatures" to no.

**jamoskeag3** · 27 Mar 2006, 01:08 AM

Not sure of background on this>
Is there a virus or something loose in the forum???

**cynthia** · 27 Mar 2006, 01:10 AM

@ uufta

You should be able to put up the sig again and there should be no problems with you again...

**Jack Lurker** · 27 Mar 2006, 01:12 AM

Some jerk had a go at hacking the forum by the look of it. It went straight for the elite of the forum, me, Blu and Chewy!
