The only time AVG flagged it was when I went to bassholics thread bout his girl leaving with his phone. The thread was deleted or moved to QP. Since then, no flags on Win 7 64bit at home. At work one of the ads had our "Website blocked" page in it. Nothing else. This was an ad at the top of the page though- not in a thread.

Is this site hosted by Internet Brands or someone else? Also, there is no info on www.vbulletin.com forums regarding this. I'll check some of the "grey-hat" vbulletin forums.
I'm pretty sure the mods are forum moderators, not IT security technicians.

Wow I'v been browsing this forum with no problems the past few weeks at home and work without even knowing anything like this was going on until I saw the warning when I just got on the site.

It sucks, it looks like a lot of people here have been screwed. Fookin virus writers are retarded.

Actually, since this targets some tools we usually use and does its best to keep you offline, I wouldn't be surprised if it took longer than 20 mins to figure out how to stop it with Process Explorer, find an offline update file for malwarebytes or similar, then start cleaning it.
I tend to think I know my **** with this stuff, but each new batch of these things just gets more and more devious. Takes alittle diggin to really figure out what they've done, and decide if a simple scan is good enough.

This is getting deeper than I thought. I may have to browse the black hat forums.

Not sure if this is any way related, but my work has gone through this security upgrade because of an aggressive virus that is being spread throughout the building. I haven't seen anything on my PC to make me think I got anything here, but now I wonder.... anyone think it could be tied in?

i got the nasty virus from my350z 2 days ago. It's a fake antivirus program called Vista Antivirus Pro. Weird thing is that my mcafee antivirus program didn't stop it from attacking my pc. I found out later on that somehow i have windows firewall off...not sure if that would've made a difference. I then did a full scan w/ Mcafee but it couldn't find shiiit.
I downloaded Windows Security Essential from Microsoft and it was able to detect and removed the virus. For those w/ genuine windows, you should be able to download it for free.

Btw when my 2nd PC at work (which is XP and not networked) was infected, it came from my flashdrive somehow. There were the shortcuts that said "pictures", "videos", and two others. I never clicked them- I just deleted them off the flash drive. I did get 3 icons on my desktop of **** picswith sites listed as the names. Malwarebyte took care of it in Safe Mode.
Just be aware it can spread to flashdrives as well. It was called taoubex.exe I think.
