I posted on another thread, but it appears that this site has had a script injected into it. It will take someone with admin privileges to fix.

I continue to see these redirects, so I am outta here. When the problem gets solved, I will return.

Thank Jebus that my wife was not looking over my shoulder at the time, or any of my kids for that matter, because it could have gotten really ugly. I am no prude about porn, but this was some really vile stuff. I kind of wondered whether my link to an article about certain supporter of Romney might have made MDB a target.


I have had some signs of the odd site earlier today - you try for MDB, you see it, it disappears briefly and the alien site starts to load, then disappears, followed by the reappearance of MDB. And MDB got quite slow for a while.

But now the site is back up to speed, and I get straight through to MDB without interuption. I am using Lion, on a Mac (sorry bcspace ... ). I have switched on Trusteer protection for passwords on this website, but that was after the site had already returned to normal.

At no stage has pornography appeared.

Yep, I'm seeing the redirect too. Everyone should run a virus scan.

Thanks Kishkumen.

I did a brief search and found out that .nu, the top-level domain of the redirected site, is the TLD for the tiny Polynesian island nation of Niue.

According to Wikipedia,

Seventy-five percent of the population of Niue belong to the Ekalesia Nieue (a national Congregationalist body). About 15% are Latter-day Saints and 7% are Catholics.


Emphasis mine.

Is that offered as an explanation of the links to pornography that have been associated with this intrusive site? Figures.

I just reported this to Shades via the Moderator Forum.

This is a coding issue, so it will have to be Mav or Keene who addresses this. If I had extensive Admin rights, I could, but alas, I am but a lowly Moderator. ;-)

I'm less worried about pornography than SCMC.
