I am getting a virus warning when going to pages on Prius Chat again. This happen a few monhts ago and was fixed. It is a differnt warning this time.
In my case, the windows media opens up, and Norton warns me of blocking some software. I thinkit was called bloodhound exploit.
I got the windows media player opening up too. But no virus warning. I just got ride of McAfee and now got AVG, now I wonder how good AVG is. Also yesterday and today I have to log in each time I visit Prius Chat.
Running Firefox 3.6.3 with NoScript enabled. Today, if I try to use the space bar to page down, or use the down arrow to move down a line, NoScript warns me of a Potential Clickjacking Attempt. This only happens on some PriusChat pages.
I frequently (especially reading this thread, ironically) keep getting an alert in Firefox saying "Additional plugins are required to display all the media on this page." I haven't got Windoze Media Player popping up for a while. I never let it play whatever it was trying to display.
Whew. I was wondering what that was. I get the media player, javscript thing popping up. So is it a virus???
I too am suddenly getting a warning message that IE is blocking this site from downloading software...

Happening with this forum - any page. Not the chat forum. Windows media opens with warning about "trusted content." Bet it's an ad!!
I just got the media player pop up. I canceled it and then found this discussion. I am running AVG on this computer, don't know why they haven't alerted on this.
I'm getting all the same variants as most of you as well. If you have media player 9 or below, upgrade to 10 and it will at least give you a prompt that you can cancel the script from running. Don't let media player run. I get this with both IE and Firefox. (spaces inserted in URL's to prevent BBS hyperlink display) My first pop-up tries to run http : / / bbbinvestigation.org/ks/40c71965f0fcb1eb7a5df2f164fb2e10.php?eid=746229&b=FireFox&sf=%2F And then I get Unable to access jarfile \ \ 188.72.243.224 \ public\ks.jar Cports.exe detects a connection to 188.72.243.224.vps.network.paylicense.net:80 while all of this is happening. I allowed media player to execute the file on a test box and Microsoft Security Essentials grabbed, cleaned, and reported the Exploit:WIN32/CVE-2010-1885.A from the ks.jar file. Here's the link to the Microsoft Malware page. http://www.microsoft.com/security/p...oit:Win32/CVE-2010-1885.A&threatid=2147634138 Note: Microsoft just listed this as of June 10th so if you have old definition files on your virus software they may not see this one. I ran a full scan which found found: Name: Exploit:WIN32/CVE-2010-1885.A Alert Level: Severe Category: Exploit Description: This program is dangerous and exploits the computer on which it is run.
