    Digital Kaos is showing MALWARE attack all the time !!!!

    I have attached a screenshot. click the photo to see larger and clearer).

    This is doing my head right in now.

    I use windows 7 x64 and and internet explorer and firefox.

    On both browsers as soon as I attempt to go onto the Digital kaos page it throws up a FAKE malware screen saying I need to update Adobe Flash Player and wont let you out of the page.

    First time I seen this (many weeks ago) I just thought it was an Adobe update because I wasnt thinking and I went ahead and clicked the "OK BUTTON", big mistake I dont normally make !!!!

    Mannnnnnn, tooook me hours to eventually get rid of all the Malware that this installed, not only that, but when it was there it hijacked everying too, total nightmare !!!!!

    I STRONGLY SUGGEST USING A PROXY TO OPEN THIS LINK UNLESS YOU KNOW WHAT YOUR DOING >>> The web link for the page it shows is >>> Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player

    So I am now having to access digital kaos using a proxy and it works fine, I dont like that though and no doubt other people will have been caught out the same way too.

    Is there anything we can do to stop this happening, I have tried the add on's in FF and IE to block the page and it still beats them (unless I am using them wrong, I dont know, first I have had to even use them), so I am kind of stuck (for once) without a solution and I guess this is a warning to other users too just to be aware, its a terribly difficult bit of Malware to get rid of and you dont want it, it runs riot on your browsers, believe me.

    So has anyone got any suggestions, Admins or Mod's or anyone at all that know what they are talking about please ?

    p.s, move this please to a more noticable section if I have put it in one where no one will see it, I couldnt see one that suited it any better than this. cheers.

    p.s, before anyone says, I have malwarebytes premium full edition installed and a firewall, plus the free available online scan and fix programs are no good at doing the job either, cheers. (and my test results show as clear all the time, makes no difference though, it still shows up all the time and makes it nearly impossible to get into DK unless using a proxy like I said, strange so it is man, hmmm !!!)

    Thanks goodness for a proxy (sometimes).

      well well, looks like someone has sorted this problem, maybe here at my end with my anti malware protection etc or maybe the server that supplies DK to our screens after I made the point, I have no Idea ?

      All I know is "for now" the problem seems to have gone, hope it stays away too

            I'm on Linux but the links above might help Saltire

            Also came upon a recent thread which may, or may not, be connected.

                If your desperate get another hard drive, "any size". Remove your hard drive fit the "new" one install windows, malware antivirus etc, then install your hdd as a slave, scan it, or copy if your brave the folders fir ff abd is from your new hdd.

                to get dk working, if you need a hdd, just shank a sky plus or freevuew one, tv repeats anyway.
