    WARNING: Redirects from RLSLOG


    I'm a active user of RLSLOG.net and have just been redirected to a site containing the 'Personal Antivirus' fake AV looking malware.
       Warning
    Do not browse http://****.RLSLOG.net unless you have adequate security features installed

    Here a pic of the page I was redirected to

    WARNING: Redirects from RLSLOG-virus-warning.jpg

    The site then acts as if it's performing a scan of your system, reporting several 1000 trojans & malware. I have sent (at personaly risk to my system, keeping the site open ) an 'Unsafe' feedback report to microsoft regarding this site.

    Thought i'd give you all a heads up :)

    Sorry, Jacee, I had to edit your post - even though yo tried to make it not clickable with the **s it was still a live link - so I removed the URL tags with the original URL so it is not clickable anymore.

    You are probably using the Rich Editor mode - if you click the A in the top right corner it switches the editor mode to pure basic mode - complete with all the tags and stuff.

    The board has software running that automagically parses URLs and applies BBCode URL tags to them - but in the Rich edit mode it conveniently 'hides' the tags from you, so you never actually see the BBCode tags. I have set my options to always use the Basic editor and only switch to the rich editor when I want to check that a link got parsed correctly - as in when linking to a users name, like so - Jacee

    Okay, did that! I'm definitely not familiar with type of board.
