MyBB Community Forums

Hi,

i am curious about my installation of mybb:

Several days ago some users mentioned possible "trojan alerts" of their virus scanners when visiting the forum. During those days, every mention came from avast scanners.

At the same time other users mentioned "small pages" on their ios devices like ipad for example.

On all my comuters everything works and looks fine.

I got a bit nervous about the trojan horse alerts, and checked logs, passes etc. Nothing special there.

I upgraded to the latest release (from 10 to 11)....
And many users told me "the trojan alerts are gone". Cool!

But now, 2 days later the alerts are coming back. Now i get a report of a user getting those alerts (still not nowing the EXACT message, will be sent to me later) even now on a norton360 installation.

Checks i did by myself running kaspersky (latest) were totally fine.

So has anyone an idea how to track/treat those alerts ?

(I just mentioned the "small pages on ios" thing because it poped up on nearly the same day... maybe a Coincidence ;-)

Hi,

i tracked this problem again.

I did a clean reinstall on a different host of mybb.
Just dropped in the DB Backup...
and BAM! Kaspersky ist still getting hits on "calling malicious urls" (external URLs).

Has anyone an idea how to solve this ?


PS: Reinstall with clean new downloaded files, no other files thant the sql dump of the old site.
