The site got infected, maybe through FTP or maybe through mine/someone else's comp. I really dont know how. Maybe just revenge for me stopping the forum new account spam. If you visited you might have gotten it, because it was making computers load foreign websites. Obviously I didn't just type that shit in. If it continues to happen I'll be shuting the forum down for a couple weeks, months maybe.... not going to bother fighting a war Ill lose.

Recommend getting this one: malwarebytes anti-malware removal tool (MBAM).
Don't put this shit off. Do it now.

DID YOU FIND ANY TRACES OF VIRUS, OTHER THEN A WEBSITE HACK?

I loaded the page when it was broke, it loaded weird but not something viral that I noticed.

Some php injection that had added a line of script to every index.php, index.html, etc, on the entire website. Google didnt turn up alot of information. Its probably my pc got infected first. You wont be in any danger of infecting AR, but maybe any site you have.

If you visited the site when it looked weird, run some malware scanner to be on the safe side.

do yourselves a favor, download SUPERAntiSpyware. Works wonders, picks up stuff malware bytes can't pick up. It is also... free. win win. Only thing is free version does not have real time protection or auto updates, but otherwise, it is a godsend with a ton of awesome tools

MBAM is the way to go.

Also if you're running Windows, Microsoft Security Essentials is the way to go too, for unintrusiveness, ease of use, speed and effectiveness, completely free.

I really like spybot. its small, powerful, and can lock your registry info and protect it, and has realtime protection that you can activate. The realtime takes a bit of memory, but the app for scanning itself is super lite.

I banned about 100 IP's today, all spam bots.

I deleted melizzian, a spam user I am pretty sure, all their posts were generic and included random links to websites.

Deleted yzriel for the same thing.

Hope these weren't real people...
