Possible hijack of the AGSCraft thread?

[straydogstrut]

Considering my email account was recently hacked i've become super paranoid lately and am finally using security software on my Mac now=S

Anyway today when I visit the most recent page of the Minecraft thread (page 18) I get a web threat warning relating to something called searchportal.information.com. The prognosis from Google isn't good and it only seems to be on that one page so i'm wondering if someone has a dodgy sig or something? I blocked it anyway but in my log I see it's still trying to connect to it every time I visit that page. Course could be at my end, and i'll be running some scans, or it might be harmless but it seems a bit odd to me. Can anyone shed any light on this?

EDIT: Have tracked it down to Voh's profile since it only occurs on the page with his posts and only on his profile. If it's legit then no worries, otherwise it may be something he needs to fix.

What browser are you using?

Nothing comes up to me, but I do see two broken images whose link leads to searchportal.information.com.

Safari/Chrome, sometimes FF. It's browser-independent though, my security software flagged it up when viewing the page in either. Now it just blocks it so i'm not too concerned, but I haven't read anything good about searchportal.information.com yet so I would be concerned if it was in my sig.

Wow, hey, that was interesting to realize.. My sig had two small images in it which were linked from my former x.sytes.net domain. It dun exist no more, and it seems sytes.net is gone, too.

Thanks for (inadvertently) notifying me of the problem! I've removed the offending image tags

No worries, though you're right: I should've sent you a message! Glad you got it sorted=)
