There is something going on. I just got the flash attempt at downloading the "Antivirus 2008" fake virus a minute ago. Acrobat kicked off to try and install it.

I'm getting the exact same result with NOD32 and Firefox 3.01 and I only get this problem when visiting Gbatemp.

I will leave the web coding to the people that know what they are doing but confirmed that something is up.
Anyhow I was playing around with firebug (realtime website editor plugin for firefox) and it displays left of the My Controls · View New Posts part.

I checked on the site and it is not too good either.

If you are especially concerned "search-you-need.com" resolves to 58.65.234.77
You can add that or search-you-need.com to your hosts file (make sure it goes to localhost (127.0.0.1 = localhost) or some other harmless IP.

http://accs-net.com/hosts/how_to_use_hosts.html (there is bound to be a better guide somewhere but it will get the job done)

WTF is going on?


(lol can it be DOS tiem nao?)


It's not that it's annoying, it's that this site is compromised, which is pretty lame if you ask me. GBAtemp is totally liable now for fucking up computers. Very lulzy, but very serious at the same time.

Your not the only one:

I'm not getting that message anymore for some reason and I can't find it in the source where it used to be.

The site has been compromised, unfortunately. I'm on it now.

I've removed all traces I could find of Search-You-Need.

Please continue to be vigilant and report any other oddities in this thread.

Do you mean it was hacked? What happened?

I've been using Adblock Plus with:
#IFRAME(width=1)(height=1)
Maybe, that's what keeping me from seeing this issue. Good thing I guess.
[edit]
The issue is width and height on 0. I guess I just missed it then...
