WARNING Possible Virus!! If you get an email from hosterwebsafe.com, be careful.
 

Got an email from this site hosterwebsafe.com and it said they had done a security analysis of my server and there were some issues. They had a link to click in order to see a free report... So I click on it and it says it's not viewable in Opera and that I need to use IE. That was a big red flag for me so I checked the source (spoofing IE). Russian email and the javascript code that gets included is "encoded" to obscure what's in it.

High probablity it's something bad but if someone ones to test it on a spare machine and let us know for sure, that would be great.

Oh boy, thanks.

:)

bump....

If you are still using local mail clients you deserve to get a virus.

Splum, buddy... I'm only telling you this for your own good.

There are plenty of brands on the market that taste JUST AS GOOD as the caffinated brands, OK?

You're such a moron.. What does the email client have to do with this..

Obviously if you used gmail or hotmail or some other service you wouldnt have this problem. BUILT IN SPAM PROTECTION.

:1orglaugh :1orglaugh :1orglaugh Did you even read my post?

i went to the site and some sort of applet tried to load, i didn't think much of it, but after your post i'm running a AV scan. if anyone who knows about this sort of thing wants to take a look the url was h**p://www.clean-internet.net/admin/report/Case194_18.03.07.txt

looking at the whois of that address it looks like you could be right, fake whois

Interesting.. I had the same url but the domain was different.

I got the same email and it ended up in my spam folder, obviously I wouldnt view or click a link in there.

uh huh.. I'm sure you did... You're so full of shit I don't believe anything you have to say.

Hey Im not the one posting threads on GFY about how I just got owned by a script kiddy's virus. The fact that you dont have spam filters of any kind and are in this business speaks volumes about your technological prowess. :2 cents:

god your an idiot. i use spamassasin on my servers and outlook 2007 with its junk mail filter locally and it got through, but as the other guy said the email client is irrelevant. infact you talk about hotmail addresses, aren't they easily hackable?

Nice fake nick.

Thanks for the heads up !! :pimp

A. I never said I got owned... and I didn't get owned.

B. I never said I didn't have any filters.. In fact, that email got thru TWO sets of filters.

You constantly ASSume things.

As I've said before.. You're a moron.. Keep on proving me right. :thumbsup

i'm still running av scan nothing yet, when i went to the page i got some sort of java error at the bottom left of the screen "applet java8 notinited" if that makes sense to anyone. definatly very fishy.

The big red flag should have been the "FREE REPORT" lol.

I do good work dont I?

Thanks for the heads up!

I got the same info but submitted through a contact form on my site.
