iamyou64 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 What antivirus program detected it? I'm worried now. (I use Noscript, so hopefully i'm okay) Anyway, how much of the mod do you think you've completed roughly? (percentages, overall and for various things) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

iamyou64 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 So do I, looks like noscript blocked any nasties, went on there to test. Give specifics. What happened, when did it come up with a warning, ecetera. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kruddpm Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 when it happened is of little importance because i only realized when i upgraded to AVG. its called the koobface worm i believe look it up and you will find what you need to know.

Im on AVG aswell, do a scan every day at 6pm and havent picked anything up at all. Can you be sure you obtained it from the feed? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iamyou64 Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Koobface Koobface spreads through private messages and posting links to malware, no way it could've come from demeggy's twitter feed, there's no posts like that and even if there was you'd have to click on a link. Your twitter is clean, everything's fine. Life goes on, and Demeggy hopefully posts more screenshots/teaser material/interesting updates/reveals cool stuff.

kruddpm Posted January 15, 2010 Share Posted January 15, 2010 it must have been from a lone tweet from some other page or rather. also to the fellow above i would recommend not basing your opinion on wikipedia. i know for fact it been hacked and had false information posted on it. and the thing is anyone one can do it all you need to do is be a skilled writer.you must realise that the koobface is one of the most sophisticated worms ever devised which is constantly upgrading itself, there would always be a possibility that it can infect in new ways which are as of yet unknown. as far as we no it could have infected this site, however that is unlikely. just a bit of constructive criticism. anyway enough of this back to the matter at hand. demegy, keep it up looking forward to hearing of the mod more soon.

Panic over people! Sorry about your unfortunate infection though Krud, hope you get it sorted. As for the mod, I'm currently tearing my hair out with it. Can happily now say, refer to the Twitter feed for the next couple of days to see what's bugging me. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
