If this is true, then we need to look into this now.

Um, humm, considering everyone would be having that same problem, One case doesn't mean an outbreak. Do you have a Virus Scanner on your computer Tizona?

[Anonymous]

I do, I am just fowarding what he said.

Here is another guy saying something about some problems with the site.

Yeah I didn't get anything either, but I didn't do the riddles.  Maybe his virus scanner mistook a cookie as something more harmful?

[Anonymous]

Could be.

[Anonymous]

Another person on our Recruitment thread said he got this problem.

If the bluepill forums are using out-dated software, it's quite possible that someone could be using an exploit in it.  But I don't see how they could use it to infect a user's machine.

I don't want to get paranoid, but it could be a few people trying to screw with us.  If enough people go around saying that FA is planting viruses in their machines, I don't doubt for a second that much of the community will take their claims on face value.

We use professional hosting, the servers should be professionally managed with systems that would constantly keep virus dats up to date, and alert the system admin.

One user mentioned a trojan, the other the worm. Could be that they don't know one from the other, or it could be they are spending a long time on the site, that a random visit to animalfarm.com didn't tally with their vriusscanner until later...

It is HIGHLY unlikely that there is a virus around the site.

ket, you seem to know the url for porn sites off hand...

at least im asuming animalfarm.com is a porn site, I dont really want to confirm my suspiscions.

[Styan]

Yeah, I haven't had any problems, im running NAV 2k5.

[ArchNemesis]

likewise... and why do i have the sneaking suspiscion that i have seen Platinum Platypus from somewhere... and he isn't someone that would be on our side... so to speak...

[Styan]

Arch wasn't he at that acolytes of zion party... when we did that RP about the FA bash meeting?

EDIT: Checked the mission thread, apparently not in my list of attendance.  nm

Platypus has been a member of the bluepill forums since March but I'm not sure if he's finished the riddles yet.

[Anonymous]

He was with Axiom Alliance, which merged into Acolytes of Zion.

That explains a bit
