X-Plane Australia Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 So it wasn't just a false positive I am not very technical, do you know if the user profiles are safe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HPM Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 We were reportedly hacked by someone in Geneva. Mark is working with Invision to patch it up and the forum will be offline until he gets it worked out. Curse those filthy Genevans! Just because they're only the second largest city in Switzerland, the have to get all antsy and go out in the world like they're all that. Totally overcompensating. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
X-Plane Australia Posted December 20, 2012 Report Share Posted December 20, 2012 Well this is weird, I have a few .org screenshots as well as links on my website (xplaneaustralia) and this is what I end up with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andyrooc Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 The Org is back online. Nasty bit of malware infected the index page apparently. http://reports.antivirus-lab.com/261983/trojan-lameshield-60/ This site will need the same update The Org got I assume?

maestrogn Posted December 21, 2012 Report Share Posted December 21, 2012 TKyler: Thank you so much for that plateau fix. Graz airport is now exactly where it should be and I did several takeoffs and landings to try it from different directions. I really appreciate your help and it is so good to be able to fly the scenery I'm actually in now. Happy Holidays! mGN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patrik Hedström Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 Could it be somebody from Geneva that was pissed off with one of the .org mods (xdave?)? I'm pretty sure that if .org does not change there mods soon they will only get more and more of these prolems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris k Posted December 24, 2012 Report Share Posted December 24, 2012 I dont think so. More likely it was a security hole, found by an automated scan to see if any Invision Powerboards still have the exploit, and they inject.[*] Lots of time and effort just to inject something on a redirect page targeting only Win32/XP users doesn't seem like a targeted attack against any particular site. - CK.
