Please note that you do NOT have to do anything, just visit the site from your device and the site will automatically detect you are on a mobile and use the new theme.

I will tweak the colors to reflect this site later on in the week.

See the blank / dead servers in the boxes in the image? Are these servers 'gone'? If not, where are they? They never show up and they are slogging down this board to the point that it takes me a good full minute to fully load a page.

If you have different code to these things I NEED them. I want to take out this stuff if it's useless.

You have no idea how miserably slow your site is for me and I've got the highest internet speed at 30 MBS!

I will be updating us sometime over the next few weeks. Due to the holidays and my hectic schedule, I cannot pinpoint an exact date I'll be free to do this.

I will need to close the board for a couple of hours for this update. If you visit the site and see it closed, I guess you can consider that your notification of the upgrade in progress!

One nice new feature of this update is a fix to the last post link in the latest threads on the side boxes! It will now be 'clickable' and actually take you to the last post instead of the first one in the thread. Very nice if you don't want to slog through a multiple page topic you've already read to look for the posts you haven't!

Merry Christmas everyone!]]>

I'm waiting on Neutron to get me some info if he has it or the systems SHOULD find this automatically.

Problem: I can't find the thing. Since I don't play the game, I'm thinking I won't see it BUT - I don't see it in Neutron's profile.

If anyone plays and sees it would you let me know? Gimme a screen shot if you can.]]>

Neutron - I am awaiting on one thing that we discussed about sending PM's. The core file changed that I had to edit and hopefully someone will get that sorted for me ASAP. Right now we're secure in the regard we discussed anyway.

New Features:

Google Translator in posts. If you look at the top right corner of EVERY post you will see a drop-down translator. Loads of languages and easy to revert back to English.

Give reputation in posts! You can now give a user reputation points inside each post. There is a new button added next to the 'find' button on the bottom/left side of the post buttons.

Referral system just got easier. You now have a link in your profile that tells you what your referral link to the board is.
*there is a plugin I can add to make it even easier and it shows the stats of your referrals. let me know if you want this added by replying.

There are other things that are fun that I can add like a Map where you can put a pin for your location in the world. Let me know by replying if you want this map.

New members are now more restricted upon registration. No longer can they just join and not post. New members MUST post an intro and meet numerical posting requirements to show they are not spammers. Meeting the parameters set in the system will alert the software to AUTOMATICALLY move them to full membership.
Newbies who have not met the requirements will also not have the luxury of using the PM system, Members List or download images and files. Sorry, too many members have been harassed by spammers that we now have taken precautions to minimize this.

Anything else? Ask away.

IF YOU SEE ANY PART OF THE THEME NOT MATCHING PROPERLY LET ME KNOW!!
If you can give me a screen shot and tell me where in the site this error / goof up is, it would help me find this and fix it fast. Thanks.]]>

There are NO EXCEPTIONS. Blame the spammers. Our goal is to protect our active members from harassing spam.

We prune all members with 0 (zero) posts automatically every 90 days. This is an automatic process by the software system and cannot be reversed.

If you want to stay an active member of this site, please post your required intro and meet the posting parameters, which will activate your account, move you to full membership and then BE ACTIVE!

You will not have access to any part of the board until you meet these requirements.

Thanks for understanding and Welcome to the team.]]>

I don't want to go through this hell again.

Hello everyone,

Twitchy (Admin) here. Over the weekend the site hosting company suffered an attack and Team =XRaY= Forum ( http://www.tm-xray.com ) had been compromised with a keylogger attack.

We have all the files cleaned up and working properly again, I got Googles block on the site removed but apparently one of you has this keylogger on your machine and until you find it and clear it out, we can be compromised again.

Below is the letter the hosting company sent me with a list of suggested anti-virus softwares. Norton (symantec) and McAfee are expensive, useless and I've never had one catch a virus on me, nevermind malicious scripts on websites!

Along with the suggestions below I'm going to suggest two of my own, both of which are free, excellent and they will do a much better job than those suggested below. Please also get yourselves malware protection as well but both my programs do a good job of catching those too.

Avira: http://www.avira.com
You can download the free version here: http://www.free-av.de/en/trialpay_downlo...virus.html

Avast: http://www.avast.com/index
Just select the free version or upgrade if you are using and need to upgrade.


This is what the hosting company told me.

Hello,

I found the iframes and have removed them from the account. According to the logs it appears as though the FTP/cpanel account was compromised and the password was scraped. Notice the IP downloading and uploading to the account. This is indicative of a script that is injecting the files with iframes. From recent incidents like these we have come to the conclusion that a users password was stolen via a password scraper or keylogger that resides on their local PC or network. So no matter how many changes we make to the password as soon as they type it into FTP or cpanel its immediately sent off to this script that then injects the files. The logs are below and below the logs you will see tips on how to secure your local network.

* What are malicious iframes and what causes them?

Over the years hackers found it hard to trick people into visiting suspicious sites so they're now targeting legit sites and using them to infect unknowing customers. In most cases an FTP account's password is obtained through key logging malware, then legit website files are modified to distribute the malware and gather more passwords. If your PC has been infected with one of these trojans, your bank account, email accounts, and FTP accounts may no longer be secure.


* What to do if you find malicious iframes

1. Use the following online vulnerability scanner and ensure your software is up-to-date: http://secunia.com/vulnerability_scannin...?task=load
2. Download antivirus and fully scan your PC for malcious files. Here are some free online scanners:
http://housecall.trendmicro.com/
http://www.bitdefender.com/scan8/ie.html
http://www.kaspersky.com/virusscanner
http://support.f-secure.com/enu/home/ols.shtml
3. Update all passwords that may have been obtained. Do not use old passwords, generate new ones.
4. Upload older versions of the files or contact support for assistance removing the malicious iframes.

* Prevention

- Ensure you use the latest browser version
- Disable javascript
- Use the firefox addon noscript
- Download and install some free antivirus software, make sure it stays updated
- Use http://www.avg.com.au/index.cfm?section=...onlinescan to test suspicious links you are given in emails or find online.


If any of you are owners of that IP address, You REALLY need to clean your system out. That is where this attack supposedly came from.

Please check your machines and if you need anything, feel free to PM me on the board. Do not reply to this email because I won't get it, you must PM me.

Thanks and I apologize for any issues anyone has had due to this.
