champion Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 There have been hacker attacks in the not-too distant past and talks of coordinated attacks. If no one else got it, it's probably not from here. The only other sites I visited were also trusted ones. If I'm paranoid, it's because this stuff can and does happen, and I have no abundance of luck with such things. The kind of attacks perpetrated on this site were not the kind that could give you a virus anyway. Unless you clicked on a link someone posted here you didn't get a virus from here. Also, luck has nothing to do with computer security.If a trusted site is hacked, then it will usually be fixed in short order. That's what makes it a trusted site. The only time I could exactly pinpoint the source of a virus was a particular page on Deviantart a few years ago. It has only happened maybe three or four times in total, and the two recent instances had ( in timing) three sites in common, one of which was Tip.it. Obviously that's not the source of either. I realize that DDoS attacks are not inherently harmful to the user of a site, but a call for a generalized attack could attract the attention of someone with the means and will to somehow attach a virus to a site. Again, I am now confident that this wasn't the cause, but no harm in verifying. And as policy I no longer click outgoing links, except to something like Youtube.What the [bleep] are you so paranoid about? I click everything and do all sorts of retarded shit on the internet and I haven't gotten a virus on this computer in the ~4 years I've had it.

Nexaduro Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Nex, if a site got hacked and turned into a virus hosting site, you wouldn't be the first to know.But I might get caught up in it before I hear about anyone else with the issue. In the case of Tip.it, most of my day is hitting alt F5 on this site, and if it did somehow become a carrier I would probably get hit as well as whoever might be first. Actually, thinking about it, there is a fourth common site to some degree, a pair of unofficial wiki sites that I believe have the same hosting services. Neither is inherently malevolent, but they might have abyssmal security. 10:53 PM - retech9691: I feel the need10:53 PM - retech9691: To include many chasms in my story arc10:53 PM - Resistance: You mean plotholes?
