I just tried to go to the En World forum site that I have bookmarked, the D&D Legacy portion of the forum. I got a warning saying it was a "reported attack page" by Firefox. I am not going to post the link because I am not sure if it violates the Giant's rules, but I am sure a Google search can bring it up. It has been a little bit since I last visited the forum, but it was fine when I was there, I think about a month ago. Has this happened to anyone else before? Has anyone got a virus off the site?

EDIT: I just tried with the main site, and it too reported an attack page.

Same here, and quite a few people have reported experiencing the same problem, according to google.

According to the Google diagnostic page (http://www.google.com/safebrowsing/diagnostic?site=http://www.enworld.org/&hl=en), some third-parties have been abusing enworld.org. Check it out, be warned.

Yeah, I was wondering about that. Did a scan after visiting it with noscript on firefox active and didn't seem to have ended up with anything. Which means either I didn't get anything or I have something especially insidious.

And if you click the button to ask for more information, it does say that it's been compromised by malicious third parties a couple of times in the past 90 days.

Yep, a few weeks ago it tried to infect my PC with a couple of trojans, and subsequent searches have shown it's still compromised, so I haven't been back to it since.

I just went and it looked fine. I'm pretty sure I was unaffected. Would you like to buy some viagra and a mortgage and a flat belly tip and a Nigerian kingdom from me?
