AVAST! forum hacked

BTW guys visiting AVASt! forum in the last 24-48 hours should be careful, apprently the forum was hacked and it was trying to infect people via a iframe and security exploit (should be okay if you have patched?)...

Do a full scan just in case.

Ouch... you would think a security firm would have their stuff secured. :(

Reminds me of a while back when breaking news was the revelation that some of the AntiSpyWare companies were found to be spying on each other. :blink:

Would it help them if the forum uses SSL connections like the one you can do in Comodo's forum?

Well hackers do what they should do right? :lol:

a well-known security company got hacked HAHAHA

i'd like to shake hands with that hacker

although he made it so that the innocent users browsing that page get exploited, thats not very cool

Any of the security forums are in danger :(

Oh well life goes on for black hats :lol:

reminds me of the movie Hackers - Takedown
