Question anyone else getting a virus warning while visiting the site today?
- Thread starter BlackMarketMagi
- Start date
There is if you allow it to install the plugin.
Update for me, it's every page now, and I had the extra happy bonus of "Chrome cannot display content on this page without a plugin! Do you want to install?" popping up.
Sounds a wee bit nasty.
Think I am going to give it a day or two before I swing back.
Good luck with the cleaning.

PS - Microsoft Security Essentials just had a near stroke letting me know about an exploit. Same thing as avast apparently.

I cannot get in at all using FF. IE and Chrome are unaffected at the moment.

I got a little different warning.. I'm running Chrome...
Warning: Visiting this site may harm your computer!
The website at www.therpf.com contains elements from the site requestbusforward.co.cc, which appears to host malware – software that can hurt your computer or otherwise operate without your consent. Just visiting a site that contains malware can infect your computer.
Apparently it only happens on certain pages. Someone probably has a ghost link hidden on their signature.
Art, You could do a database scan and remove any references to this "co.cc" location. It looks like it changes from time to time. I did a view source on one of the pages that fired off a warning but did not find the link.

You definitely will want to run an anti-virus or anti-malware prog.
Just as a note for the future, you should never have to install software from therpf.com to make the site run.
I'm getting the same problem on FF with a Mac. I go to security preferences and list it as a site that should not be blocked, and it still gets blocked on every page I visit and shows just a basic page layout. I can get past it by clicking the ignore link on the bottom right of the attack page warning but again it shows up on every page.

I do not see any problem with Safari, but I don't like using Safari.
Strange that it still won't allow the site even though I created an exemption through Firefox blocking. However if I disengage blocking entirely then I am able to visit the site unimpeded.

Heh, well there you have it. Mods can move or delete at will obviously.

Chrome on a Mac tanked like Safari did. Using an iPhone seems okay.

I've got it too. Looks ugly as hell with a white background. Yugh!!
I can't use smileys.
This may be related, but is anyone having problems as of today posting links (Such as a youtube video.) on Facebook? It could be unrelated, but as both started happening tofay, I figured I'd ask.
