milkfrost's world

The brand new virtual world of Milkfrost - formally (milkfrost.multiply.com)

The reason why this blog is created is because Multiply.com is shutting down & all posts will be removed. Some posts here are back-dated from Aug 2004 - Aug 2012! I'm just doing a screen-shot & re-posting slowly cos it ain't easy to import every single photo. Therefore, only thumbnails are available for viewing, which also explains the white background & the little note at the end.

"Danger: Malware Ahead" Warning!


I've got this warning message when I try to access my blog today & I have to click on "learn more" & ENTER AT OWN RISK to access to my blog!


NO!!!
I don't want to put my computer at RISK! 


Sent a "ticket" to the guys at nuffnangx for them to investigate & meantime, I've also removed my nuffnangx gadget to access my blog without seeing the warning message!

I hope they resolve the issue fast!

**UPDATED on 07 Dec 12**

Received email reply from NuffnangX team the day after the ticket is being sent!


Hooray! We've checked our systems, and there were no malicious code found. The latest updates from Google has also cleared NuffnangX as being a Malware distributor site due to the same reason. The malware warnings have already been removed and you can now browse NuffnangX and insert the NuffnangX code into your blog without running into any problems. We're not sure why this happened but we suspect the malware warnings might have been due to some of the blogs our users have added to their feed, which may have been infected.  

To ensure this doesn't happen again, we are taking measures to not redirect users to blogs that may have been hacked. If you are using Wordpress.org blogs, we encourage you to upgrade it because blogs hosted on Wordpress.org are a common target for Malware distributors.  

We also advise all NuffnangX users to be careful which blogs they are accessing because NuffnangX is a blog aggregator and a tool to read blogs; it only hosts one line of summary and not an entire blog, therefore, it is unlikely that users would have been compromised by any malware from nuffnangx.com itself. We will also be integrating the Google Safe Browsing API into our system to filter out blogs which might have been affected.  

It's been a long and stressful day for us, but we would like to thank all of you for your patience and support during this time. We hope you'll continue to enjoy using NuffnangX!
