I Haven't had this problem at all?

Why do some have it and some not?

Depends on when I catch them and remove them, and who's running script blockers.

Its doing it again.

Should I run a script blocker and if so, what is that, will it affect visiting other sites and how do I do it?

i just got redirected back to my igoogle page again.  seems like in the last few days it's been happening a little more regularly. 

i guess it's only a matter of time before gf opens up a :CF paypal account. ;)

the only issue I'm having is from boomspeed? I assume that's PSN's boob-atar, but its making my page load up really slow.

NoScript works fine, if you're using Firefox. If you're using IE, you'll probably want to reformat.

NoScript says there's one more instance of go00ogle.com left, but Chrome says everything is fine. I'll assume Chrome is wrong.

For the technology idiots here (me), how does this happen? Do these malware bugs somehow attach themselves to this site?

When I got that trojan notice (in the computer geek thread) I ran Norton and it did not find anything. I also ran AdAware and Malwarebytes and nothing came up on them either.

Either my computer is infected and they got the ftp password, they was a hole in the board software/server software required for the board to run, or both. It seems that quite a number of sites are infected currently, and the infection is proving difficult to remove. I've already removed it from a good dozen files, and it was put back in again before I was done fixing the last batch.

The current one, .c00om, is a little tougher than the last one. The go00ogle one was easier by far. I've been downloading all umpteen million files the board runs from and searching all the text in them for iframe or google. The code for it adds the zeroes to the address on the loaded page, which means I can't search for go00gle. Same with .c00om, except I can't just remove every mention of .com without breaking everything.

Computer hackers and thieves should all burn in hell.

I'd like to kick the shtein out of them. ALl of them. I just feel like giving out a good beating.

Fixed, I think. That took long enough.
Is rjs gonna have to choke a bitch?

General_Failure

Almost. There's still one, but tracking it down is slow going.

Yeah nevermind. This shtein is still happening. LAME.
