And most sites are unsuccessfully hacked on a daily basis...my issue is that we are successfully hacked what feels like once a week...so it isn't as simple as oh, we are bigger or whatever...find a way to make the site smaller if there isn't anyone that knows how to deal with how large it is...

I mean this is ridiculous...if you are going to do it, do it right...if you can't, then stop trying...for real
if the sites sooo big and ur using the vbseo for avdertising ect, get thes ite on multiple servers and get rid of the mysql and use the other databse much betetr and faster and more secure,,people teare moving away from sql for this EXACT reason,

they really need to get the security sirted out,,maybe a dedciated securty team on staff if THIS IS HAPPEING THIS OFTEN,,just a thoght

I'm not convinced there is anything really wrong...we will see. Lots of times I've found certain websites are sometimes flagged by a virus program when changes are made, like all the updated RIU has had in the past week.

Ok, Glad I'm not the only one seeing this. Firefox warns it is a maliscious website and now it wont even allow me to load the site.

So I jumped to IE, yeah that worthless browser allowed me to open the site and immediatly Nortons popped up and notified me it blocked an intrusion.

Yeah, This website is secure. Come on guys.
 
Googled rollitup on my iPad like I always do, clicked on forum like always, and google gave me malware alerts. Took screenshot if anyone cares.

Paranoia will destroya!!!!!! lol! Logging onto the internet is dangerous. People just have to use common sense and make sure their anti-virus/security software is kept up to date. No security program is perfect though, so we all take a risk whenever we get on the internet.:cuss:

The internet isn't secure. Security is YOUR responsibility. If you don't feel that a site is safe, don't log into it.........simple!!!!!;-)

Here's the message norton is giving me - i use firefox:

"Java is attempting to access the internet.

Remote address 178.162.167.31

TCP (Outbound)"

Only happens when i'm on RIU. I load the forum page, then New Posts, then I get that norton alert.

*Sigh*:roll:


"WE" do the best "WE" can. Nobody forced you to log onto this or any other site. Nobody is making you upload information to this or any other site. That's on YOU! I'm a member here, just like you. I have personal info here, but I'm not finger pointing. The site has ZERO control over who decides to hack it. When these things happen, they are dealt with as quickly as possible, but if you think this or any other website is perfect and absolutely secure, then you're smoking some devestatingly potent herb my friend! lol!:eyesmoke:

NO, Its YOUR fucking website, It is YOUR job to keep YOUR website secure.
lol!:wall:

No, it's not "MY fucking website"! I'm a volunteer moderator for the organics section and a member, just like you. I have NOTHING to do with the security of the site. I take care of my OWN security. If you feel the site is unsafe, then all you have to do is click on the little "X" in the top right hand corner of your computer screen.;-)

Use the word "YOUR" however you wwant. You spoke up for the website as a mod so I spoke to you as if you were admin. So allow me to correct my statement.

It's the ADMINS fucking job to secure THEIR website.

Oh and I dont "feel" the website is unsafe. I know for a fact it is unsafe. But go ahead, keep telling all the people that are trying to bring this issue to the forefront to "leave the website if you dont like it here"
