    Update on Malware Issue?

    What is the status on the malware issue?

    I got an antivirus warning today when I went to one part of this site and I'm hesitant to continue using this forum until the issue is completely resolved.


    Thanks

    I have not had any warnings for the past few days now, and the tech team have said we are clean
    1. Use code tags for VBA. [code] Your Code [/code] (or use the # button)
    2. If your question is resolved, mark it SOLVED using the thread tools
    3. Click on the star if you think someone helped you

    I got the malware warning 3 or 4 times today. How sure are we that it's resolved? Is there anything I need to do on my end like clear my browsing history/cookies, etc.?

    I have not had the warning for a while now, using AVG. I will pass this onto the TT again

    OK, just got this back...
    If the web is clean, the user may be loading cached versions of the site. Have them clear their cache. CTRL+SHIFT+DEL typically

    I see we're on v4.1.8 which is still prone to SQL injection attacks - is there going to be an upgrade anytime soon? (This was patched in v4.2.3)
