View Full Version : Weird popup update.

I disabled all the templates and reverted the default theme back to the way it was to remove the google ads. I had to leave to go to church so I didn't have much time but I wanted it disabled before I left so this was what I chose to do. Drastic but effective.

Until the search engines recrawl our site and re cache our site, you may still be getting the popup from the site.

If you did download what the popup directs you to, you MUST do a scan of your computer because this could mean you have a trojan on your computer.

I am really sorry and it's the google ads. I'm almost sure of it. It has happened once before but I don't think that it's something to worry about always happening.

I'll get it all sorted and start bringing back all the things we had on the site tonight.

Hang in there and I'm really sorry that this happened.

I think everything is ok now.

HOWEVER, I think until all the search engines re cache our site, we'll still be having this issue so just enter the site name directly in the address bar.

I don't think you should be getting any more of the problems with links in emails. Let me know though, if you DO get some through email.

I think I fixed the problem and it wasn't the google ads. Mea Culpa on that one.

Oh good, I thought I was crazy earlier today when I tried to get in and the stupid pop-up kept coming up...

I just tried to get on and it's still doing it through google. I had to do a system restore because it infected my computer. It's all good now. I think.

Yeah until the search engines re cache our site, do not click the link through any search engine. Put the address directly in the address bar


I'll be re-adding the moods and the google search over the next few days.

Thanks Marie. I found that if you just type it in the address bar it worked.

Is anyone else still getting this when they open a link to the site from a subscribed thread email update?

It's all good. In all honesty, I have better luck finding what I need from the VBulletin search engine anyway. :)

I found something else this morning.

I hope I got it all this time.

Keep me updated please.

I've tried google and msn search engine and it worked fine on my end :D
