        Will a decent fire wall/router combo not keep these people out?

          I didn't mean to steal your post, we must have been writing at the same time as the posts are only secs apart.

          I don't understand how they think that an auto detailing discussion forum would be the least bit interested in Islamic politics???????

              Do a search on Google for "vbulletin hacked arab" and you will find it is going on all over. This kind of attack is not really directed specifically at any particular site, just sites that happen to be vulnerable.

                Seems like the Autopia version of vBulletin is vulnerable...

                    They do this because they can't get a PC over there.

                        MY Firewall/Anti-virus is seriously trying to get me to not access the Autopia site. Says Attack site or something like that. Even gives me the option to "Get me out of here".

                        Anyone know what's up?

                            DO NOT visit the site at this time. A fake Anti Virus worm will be placed on your system if you do. I am currently using Prevx to remove it.

                              While I have the Norton Anti-Virus and it's blocking any threats, it still makes me uncomfortable visiting the site right now. As a matter of fact, I just visited it and a few things were blocked.
