Strange message from usfine.com

Was browsing www.usfine.com when I got this message.



Paid version of AVG internet security too.

 

Hmm that's odd, does this mean it's been infected with a trojan or something?

 

That's very odd,
You should probably ask them about it if anything.

 

Hope they're not turning into Gold4rs type of deal. Investigate further if you can.

 

AVG sucks anyway, get a better anti-virus program.

 

Sounds like a personal problem :laugh:

Usfine, has been a Wonderful experience for me.

It Could possibly be.. that Modzilla can Read the Language off Usfine, did you follow the link when it says if you want to download the language packets?

it could be a 3rd party source?

Sometimes Mozilla can't read the code so it will come up as a threat.

 

that means usfine use thread machine to bump thread

right? that break the rule suck!!!

 

Looks dodgy, if I were you I wouldn't use that site; it looks as if they automatically download a Trojan upon visiting the site.

However: This is the first case I've heard of something such as this.

 

Is anyone here actually surprised that a gold farming website tried to install a trojan, seriously?

 

Not when you put it that way, lol

 

why would they intentionally install one....you guys are dumb as hell.
they want more customers and if they give people trojans it fucks the customers computer......therefore no buys for USFine.
use common sense before posting a thread.
AVG sucks ass anyway thats why it found random shit.

 

It came from the page itself.

Yeah it does suck ass, but this is one trojan it managed to find, so they must have picked one of the crappiest most obvious trojans in existence.

Gold4rs used drive by downloads on their site before too.

 

Maybe it was doing a random scan on your computer and found it as you were browsing usfine.com. My old computer would scan every half hour, so if it found a virus during the random scan as I was browsing let's say Runescape.com it would pop up like that. Even if I was on Microsoft word it would pop up every half hour saying clear or not. Mind you I didn't have AVG and I wasn't browsing shady sites like UsFine.

 

I turned set-time scans off, avg would only scan if I told it to.

 

hmmm looks dodgy, i wouldnt trust it personally, buy off someone with alot of vouches on sythe :idea:

 

it's just an advertisement on their site, nothing is going to happen to your pc and it's not their site

 

You've just contradictred yourself.

 

how? perhaps you just can't read? let me re-write it so maybe even YOU can understand it

it's just an advertisement on their site, which is usually just an iframe of another site on their site, that iframe containing a link or an image to another site. meaning, the apparent infected site is the site the advertisement leads to, not usfine itself.

however, the only way the apparent infected site can install a trojan is if they use a signed applet which asks you for permission before it runs, or a flash exploit (old flash versions). both are normally thwarted if you use vista with UAC controls on (by default it's on) and haven't executed your browser as admin, because it wouldn't have enough permissions to save or run the file.

after investigating the site that gives the error i'm willing to bet it was a false positive.

 

It's not a real virus... Get a better internet security or Anti virus, It's basically a false positive.

Type I error, also known as an "error of the first kind", an α error, or a "false positive": the error of rejecting a null hypothesis when it is actually true. Plainly speaking, it occurs when we are observing a difference when in truth there is none. An example of this would be if a test shows that a woman is pregnant when in reality she is not. Type I error can be viewed as the error of excessive credulity.
