Hi all, board was down while we fixed a site XSS hack. We believe it has been fixed and the site patched to prevent this from happening again.

Please we beg of you to use Firefox or Opera if you are on windows and do not ever just say yes to download a file that you did not specifically request to download.

I just got an email from "The Shizz" and now everytime I navigate to any pages there's a file, xpl.wmf, which tries to download (I use Firefox). Looks like the Trojan is back....looks like there's more work for you, screen :(


Thanks!

I've been on the shizz for 2 minutes and gotten this window about 6 times.

All the time when I tell people what I do they say, "Oh I don't understand art, I can't even draw." (or worse, "I only like art I can understand.") Well, ya know what, I don't know how to make a car, but I sure appreciate being able to drive one.

I, too, am getting the Trojan with every page load using Firefox. Luckily, my McAfee is catching it everytime, but it's annoying.

Using Firefox is a good thing. It at leasts gives you the option to download the virus or not.

I'm on a Mac.. it won't work on me. I still asked to download the file, though. Damned annoying.

If I knew where the friggin hosts file was on OS X, I could set the domain to loopback so it won't keep trying to download...
