Weird line at top of forum?

Post by matthewhayashida » Fri Aug 24, 2007 4:55 pm

[Global Mod Edit: Link removed. - ChiefGoFor]

Im getting odd errors. When I tried to add a post I got a whole bunch of assorted gibberish.

When I view page source I get

Code: Select all

<html>[Global Mod Edit: Link removed. - ChiefGoFor]</html><?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?>
   <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

Core has been pinged.

Thanks for the report.  :)

When entering that URL in IE 7.x my virus software went crazy. I also got an IE message that this is some type of remote data access script that was trying to install something.
