Malware on the forum???
Posting this in IB because my experience us that threads in problems and suggestions get ignored.
A few times over the last 24 hours I've had the main forums.sv650.org address redirected to contestwinnersandprizes.com. Happening on both the laptops in my house (posting this from tapatalk as its happening now). If I try to hit any other page for instance usercp.php I get an apache internal server error. Anyone else seeing the same? It could be a piece of malware thats affected both my laptops I suppose. |

Had it last night redirected to that site so closed the browser. Tried again and again it redirected. Tried another site and it was fine. Not seen it since. I run AVG as my anti-virus, full scan reported no issues. |

Re: Malware on the forum???
I had the same earlier on this afternoon, through IE8 & landline.
Avast reported it as URL Malware and disconnected. Seems OK now though.
