[resolved] wiki.aminet.net has a potential Trojan horse virus!!!
« on: November 03, 2010, 09:18:17 PM »
I hope this gets out to someone running wiki.aminet.net but Avast Antivirus is reporting that this site is trying to punt a Trojan JS:Redirector-CV [Trj] into Firefox  (found by clicking the about link from the main aminet site) .

Direct links below obfuscated for obvious reasons:

Trojan'd site is h**p://wiki.aminet.net/
Affected object is h**p://wiki.aminet.net/|>{gzip}

This could be a false positive but I thought I'd mention just in case...

There's a whole load of guff for ntera.com jammed into an inline javascript at the foot of the page source.

-edit-

Email sent. Hopefully somebody will pick it up soon.

No problem.

Since the issue has been dealt with, I've updated the thread title to avoid creating undue alarm.

No, it means you are a heretic and not a true believer because you don't browse on your A500 using A/Web!!! ;)

That's right because I was using my tower cased A600 with a custom built  300Mhz ColdFire V5 prototype accelerator running Windows XP. Pffft just because I use old hardware doesn't mean I need to use a pirate web browser ;)
