Damn...while I was fixing the problem and before I plugged the security hole, they hit "freelancerbar.com". Busy day.

Great. I am not getting the message anymore either. Google search results still show "This site may harm your computer", but hopefully those will go away in a day or so.

I've found the security hole that allowed this to happen, and it has been "plugged". Now waiting for Google to rescan and give us a clean bill of health.

Btw, jacko, what did your scan find?

Yeah, I've been getting a lot of the emails with huge CC lists and a single URL in them. But I never click them!

LOL. Maybe it's blocked because it has a description (though not an implementation) of the malware code.

Not really...the malware was inserted on July 1, according to the server admin logs, but wasn't detected until July 4, so it managed to upload to a few people, I'm sure. For a discussion (very technical) of what the malware code does, you can look here http://blog.unmaskpa...mains/#more-883 (apparently the authors liked "Forrest Gump"). It's attempting to redirect you to bogus Russian sites with names like hxxp://xmexlajhysktwdqe .ru/runforestrun?sid=cx where the first part is a random string created by the script. It turns out that, luckily, someone has been taking the target site down, so they point to a "sinkhole" (dead site), which cannot continue where the script left off. That's at least a piece of good news. Let us know if you find the same virus/malware on your system.

Oh, and if you have accessed Pattayatalk since the 1st of July, run a virus scan. I think a little bugger got thru, but it was found by my scanner and fixed. Here is the virus scanning result from finding the javascript insertion (JS/agent).

A couple of days ago, a piece of javascript was inserted into the root file of www.pattayatalk.com. This was flagged by Google as being malware, and it probably was, though I am not sure what it was doing. The problem has been detected and resolved, but Google will still report the site as an "attack site" for a short while until they can rescan it and give it a clean bill of health. Until that time, you will see a message something like this when you open the site or try to access the forum. If you're feeling brave, go ahead and click the PROCEED ANYWAY link to continue. As far as I can tell, the problem is resolved at this point. Sorry for the disruption.

Good idea!

No it isn't the right place, but I will move it.

No.

Traffic and driving from Pratumnak is a lot less dangerous than driving in Pattaya Central area. I live in Pratumnak now, and hardly ever encounter other vehicles when I am going home. OTOH, when I lived on Soi Diana, at the LK Metropole, I was taking my life in my hands every night I went home down 2nd Road and up Soi Diana. Pratumnak Hill is the absolute safest place to travel from in Pattaya, so I'd say that being on Soi 4 Pratumnak is not a negative at all. FYI, it's light years safer than travelling from Jomtien on Thappraya Road.

I think it would be better to put in the text of the topic, rather than expecting people to watch videos for information about the bar's location. Capdagde...seems it's clear where it is from your description though...just south of Soi Diana in the bar complex before Kiss. Is that right?
