Mimii Posted February 7, 2009 Share Posted February 7, 2009 Wow, I just signed up and already 3 Trojans have attempted to hook up on my computer! I am 100% positive it's from this site although I'm not sure why or anything.. I thought you guys might want to know! o_O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sapphy the Swamp Witch Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Neopets.com itself had some kind of trojan virus in its ads a while ago. Perhaps the ad's on TDN now, too? TDN would never use trojans to attack the computers of its site's users. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimii Posted February 8, 2009 Author Share Posted February 8, 2009 Oh I figured you guys wouldn't do it on purpose, those things are just sneaky. Didn't mean to sound accusatory! :O Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unstream Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Are you sure there are viruses here? I'm on this site all the time, but I don't have a virus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amitybelle Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I've never had any problem with TDN or Neopets as far as viruses/trojans go, not even with the ads. Doesn't seem like anyone else is having this problem so are you sure it's TDN? You didn't have any other sites open? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mimii Posted February 8, 2009 Author Share Posted February 8, 2009 As I said in my first post, I am 100% positive it was from this site. I had no other windows, browsers, programs or even services or processes running on my computer. I haven't received a notice since but I am sure it was from here. :T Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 Was there any information attached to the trojan alert (i.e. it's origination, trojan name, etc)? I assure you that we would never put any viruses up on TDN, but our third party advertisers could be doing tricks... Please let me know so we can resolve this.

soccerallstar395 Posted February 8, 2009 Share Posted February 8, 2009 I just recieved a trojan as well. My virus scanner told me to restart my computer and scan it again to clean it, and then it didn't come up again. Not even to clean. I don't have it anymore. It was wierd. Though I am almost positive that mine came from Neopets Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
