Firefox says EN World is an attack site?

[MENTION=54010]Deus Ex Machina[/MENTION]? Wasnt there an enworldie by that name at one time? maybe before the big crash?

Considering the number of Chinese MMORPGs I've seen advertised in the last week I'm betting one of them is viral.

World of LordCraft, Kingory, Evony, Civony, Caesary, Hickory, D***kory....

Kingory,Evony,Civony,Caesary, Lord of Worldcraft, D***kory....

I was using #enworld on Twitter for a while, but have used #enw instead recently.

Oh god... EN World has become sentient and is acting on it's own accord!! /Panic.

/panic.

Does anyone have the flashdrive with the Sword of a Thousand Truths? We need a deterrent against future attacks.

Google cleared us some time this morning.

Out of curiosity - do you have any idea what happened? Was it an ad, a hack, or a false positive?

Congrats on the fast fix: I didn't expect things to move so quickly.

Edit: never mind, found http://www.enworld.org/forum/news/300065-hacking-malware-warnings.html

As I said, my twitter feed is official and said exactly that. The Livejournal thing is nothing to do with me.

If folks want to ask me a question on twitter, I'm sure they know to put [MENTION=1]Morrus[/MENTION] in it if they want me to see it.

I remember using that LJ community years ago during some ENWorld downtime, trying to figure out why it was down. I don't know who started it, but a lot of ENWorld regulars have posted there.

To be honest, I'd forgotten about it because I haven't used LJ regularly in about a year, Facebook pretty much overtook it in terms of keeping up with people and things.

I tend to use #enworld, but is there a move to switch to #enw? Fewer characters = more shining pearls of wisdom shoved uncomfortably into a tweet.

You should tweet that.

BTW, thank you all y'all who sussed out and fixed the problemo.

i think that was Dar jr. (mr. Tech man!)
