warning do NOT goto Xmodworld.com right now....
 
warning do NOT goto Xmodworld.com right now.... some one obviously hacked it, and its installing stuff through security settings... it also loads sites that you kinda dont want to see, even if you do like porno...

thanks i know where to go now... j/k

i just went there and i have no problems. nevermind, i just got the porn site. got it right after i logged on to their forum. im gonna tell them.

ME2fast 04-17-2004 03:14 PM

yea, i noticed that this morning. It only does it when you click one forums. You can go anywhere else in the site. I still go there though. Just when you see it starting to load on the bottom, before it switches screens just hit "stop" on your browser

Draconious 04-17-2004 03:52 PM

well it some how managed to change all my IE security settings to ENABLE directX wich I know I disabled... and various other things, it was loading itself just by starting IE after I left the site and rebooted ... I had to dump out a lot ofcrap to "fix it" temporarily...

ok now it's not my computer. almost got me introuble.

tcg23 04-17-2004 06:54 PM

dracoinus, I hope you didn't have direct x disabled..

I believe you meant to say active x, which can be nasty when abused.
I'm blaming you anyway, you told us not do something, which means that it is imperative that we do what you told us not to.
:D

Oh well,

Draconious 04-17-2004 08:06 PM

yes active X... either way they are from the same evil source of software...


PS. Do NOT give draconious 1,000,000$ a year, for no aparent reason...

Any remedy to this problem. I feel my PC is running low on virtual memory because of it. It's a real pain to navigate the net now. I'm getting alot of blank pop-ups and crap :mad: .

aperson 04-18-2004 01:46 PM

well i went there again today and all it did was change my homepage. no biggie, didnt change any settings fortuneatly. i would reccomend putting all active X options on prompt or disabled. also make sure that if you're using Windows XP that you have their firewall enabled, i also run Lavasoft Zone Alarm. its a fire wall. after you visit the site i would also reccomend running Spybot Search and Destroy. it found some stuff that was bad. i run it every week with no problems so i would highly reccomend it.

viperdout 04-18-2004 04:52 PM

I got Search and Destroy. It's amazing what stuff installs w/o you knowing it.

aperson 04-18-2004 05:18 PM

Gator is the reighning king of spyware. (spyware= stuff that installs on computer w/o you knowing) Lavasoft AdAware is also a helpful tool for removing spyware.

i dont think it has done anything to me.
