az87aris - Repoted attack site

delude · 27-06-09, 11:19 AM

Did you know that your site has apparantly been reported as an 'attack' site?
When I go to your Free PAYG iPhone 3G, PS3, Xbox 360 Elite Plus Many More Free Gadgets! site I get the following:

Quote:

What happened when Google visited this site?

Of the 19 pages we tested on the site over the past 90 days, 2 page(s) resulted in malicious software being downloaded and installed without user consent. The last time Google visited this site was on 2009-06-20, and the last time suspicious content was found on this site was on 2009-06-20.

I posted this here instead of a PM because I wondered if anybody knows how a site gets the status of an 'attack site' and if it can be reversed or prevented?

I'm getting the same message but i've never seen anything like it before so I can't advise, sorry.

Ilikefree · 27-06-09, 12:23 PM

if you click why was this site blocked it shows where the malware has been hosted - remove any links to it and re upload

digger600 · 27-06-09, 12:23 PM

I am getting it as well, no idea how it can happen though, I'll have a look round

xbox360guy · 27-06-09, 12:29 PM

i keep getting it whenever i come onto exceem..

it says your site is hosting malware?

Cruelworld · 27-06-09, 01:01 PM

Could the host server be infected by whatever dodgy web script he has been trying to use...

Amiethest · 27-06-09, 02:20 PM

I've never seen this and I don't get that message.

Harvez · 27-06-09, 02:35 PM

need that sorting asap as google will de-index you and takes ages to get back up.

ElectroGirl · 27-06-09, 04:12 PM

This happens with Google Chrome

Time to scan your computer for malware then innit, and update...

kevan321 · 27-06-09, 04:26 PM

It was a problem on WTSO.net for a while, turned out it was from one of their adverts

Jon · 27-06-09, 05:32 PM

just some of the eXceem threads? if you get this can you click on the reasons why and send it my way?

Looking at google webmaster tools there isnt anything that would suggest there are problems on eXceems end, my thoguhts are its a image in someones sig thats setting off the trigger, but I would have thought crome would realise that.

Jon · 27-06-09, 05:37 PM

removed the banner from az87aris's sig, can a crome user try a few threads they had trouble with in the past to see if thats fixed it?

az87aris · 27-06-09, 05:41 PM

I am aware of this, a few kind members have PM'd me and a few have left me visitor msgs (sorry i haven't responded to those!).

I'm a little p'd off that this has been broadcasted tbh. I'd much rather you PM me with something like this rather than open up a thread.

I am trying my best to get the problem resolved, my website has been reviewed by google themselves and has found it to be clean:

"Status of the latest badware review for this site: A review for this site has finished. The site was found clean. The badware warnings from web search are being removed. Please note that it can take some time for this change to propagate.

Google users will see a warning page when they attempt to visit pages within this site. You can visit the Google Safe Browsing diagnostic page for your site for detailed information about the problems we found. Sample pages that may be distributing malware:

Please review StopBadware.org's Security Tips for Websites and make any necessary changes to your site. When you have cleaned your site, you can request a review, and we'll evaluate your site."

delude · 27-06-09, 06:45 PM

Sorry, but your site is public and advertised on this forum for all to see. The main reason of opening a thread is that there hasn't been one discussing having a freebie site listed as an attack site, or why it happens and what to look out for.

az87aris · 27-06-09, 06:50 PM

The fact it is advertised for all to see doesn't give anyone a right to advertise the fact the site is blocked by opening a thread about it.

I wouldn't have minded my site being used as an example in the 'there hasn't been one discussing having a freebie site listed as an attack site, or why it happens and what to look out for' topic if you'd have asked for my permission first!

It doesn't come up for me anymore

Harvez · 27-06-09, 06:53 PM

sorry but ur website is in the public domain, if your site has been listed as having malware etc then anyone is free to advise others of the sites "possible" problems.

maybe you should be less worried about someone posting the fact, and more concerned how it happend in the first place.
