I received this message from a trusted moderator
Quote:
I have gotten browser warnings several times that Clubadventist is an unsafe site with malware. And I have had several disconnects from the site.

Also encountered an odd problem last night doing a mod edit on a post by olger. I had moved it to edit it (his post was a cut and paste from a Christianity Today article without any acknowledgment of source. I was just adding the source) and when I attempted to move the post back, the whole thread had disappeared. So his post sits in the moderator storage.


and this message

something is wacky with the site here. The topic headings are all bunched together in a column and the posts go off the end of my screen....

If the site/server was hacked then anything could be installed. Doing a quick scan of your source I don't see any of the common ones however. Any particular page they receive the malware warnings?

On the second one, any idea what browser?

For whatever it's worth, I'm seeing this in the Chrome console

www.paypal.com : potentially vulnerable to CVE-2009-3555

Security Error: Content at http://googleads.g.doubleclick.net/ may not load data from http://clubadventist.com/.

Error: Permission denied for <http://googleads.g.doubleclick.net> to call method Location.toString on <http://clubadventist.com>.


The page loads fine when not logged in. Even the google ad.

Google AdSense has been spewing malware. Many users of many forums have been hit. This has been documented on the Google AdSense user forums. Google has been working on curing the problems.

Some Godaddy servers were hit back in May. Malware went after everything with a .php extension. I fixed a site twice within 2 weeks cause of it.
