I've changed of computer, and came to the larian site, like i always did.
When i was entering to the site - in the address box i saw this for 1 or 2 seconds.

www.boredlife.com/larian.com

or
www.boredlife.com/www.larian.com

something like this.

The reason - i don't know why, maybe is normal, and just i'm not knowing about this, cause have 4 or 5 days what i don't come here, and today i saw this.

Somebody else saw the same thing? Or isn't nothing to care about?!?!

hmm since the wbsite exists, but has no content I am getting the nasty feeling that you have some spyware installed on your PC.

Suggestion run Search and Destroy available here and you would be surprised what comes up, new PC or not <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />

So, you better keep yopur scripting and Java turned off while visiting sites you don't know.

Even better : Don't use the Internet Explorer while visiting sites you don't know.

But even worse, there is a kind of bug which can let hijakers use the Internet Explorer's scripting - Activex, to be exact - even when it's turned off ! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/exclamation.gif" alt="" />


Don't trust what you don't know, that's the best defense, imho.


The virginity of the Internet is over. We must protect ourselves now.
