Legit Reviews

I was browsing an article and got this popup.

Is Google acting up again and declaring all websites are bad?

I commented on this here - http://forums.legitreviews.com/about26616.html

We are working to resolve any issues that might be creating any malware issues. This is a very serious issue and according to google it's something with our ad server. I've deleted our old install and installed a clean install of the latest version of the ad server and disabled Google ads. I've contacted Google and asked them to re-scan the site in order to get a clean bill of health and to get off the blacklist. A PITA indeed. I hope that it gets resolved by Monday.

Ok, just wanted to bring it to your attention if you didn't already know about it.

oh yeah... been working on it non-stop since 6am CST this morning.... not sure what I can do now as it's on google... the server is clean

Seems to be OK now. I just searched "legitreviews.com" on google, followed the link and got no warnings.

It always allowed access to the main page... it was the news/article url's that it was blocking. Do those work for you now?

I can get on forums and articles via goodle links with no problems so I think it's fixed. now.

still getting the block on FF 3.6

I get blocked with red flag but it's not every link which is weird.

Running FF3.6 at work, and I can get to all pages no issues now.

Weird, I was able to read the thermaltake case review this morning now when I try to open another article I get the warning. Hopefully this will be fully resolved by tomorrow.

Wow, that sucks. Glad you guys are on top of it.

hard not to be when all your search engine traffic is blocked and those that directly make it to the site can't click around without getting warnings...

March 2010 was going to be a record breaking month, but now with nearly 72 hours of issues it looks like it won't be!

I'm glad this was resolved. LR is one of my favorite haunts.

The malware SQL injection in our OpenX ad server happened the evening of 3/20/2010 and was resolved in the morning of 3/21/2010. Legit Reviews isn't going anyplace!!

I apologize again for the exploit, but it was a bug in the OpenX ad server software and there wasn't anything we could do for it! We enabled some custom work arounds that should help secure the installation a little better.

It would have taken most places a week before they realized something was wrong, a week before they fixed it and two years before they admitted it happened. This was a top-notch response to the problem. There is nothing to apologize for as far as I'm concerned.
