Not sure if anyone else has made the upgrade yet, but Ausmini visitors will be in for a pretty severe shock.

When the browser is left on default security settings to warn of 'suspected attack sites' it refuses to allow you to access www.ausimini.com. I have pasted the full message below, but someone should look into it I guess :?

It is may be because of a shared host hosting other sites on the same IP with a bad reputation or just people posting crap in the forum :( . Either way.. may cause you problems in future :(

Message from Firefox 3:
Quote:
Safe Browsing
Diagnostic page for www.ausmini.com/

What is the current listing status for www.ausmini.com/?

Site is listed as suspicious - visiting this web site may harm your computer.

Part of this site was listed for suspicious activity 2 time(s) over the past 90 days.

What happened when Google visited this site?

Of the 3 pages we tested on the site over the past 90 days, 2 page(s) resulted in malicious software being downloaded and installed without user consent. The last time Google visited this site was on 06/19/2008, and the last time suspicious content was found on this site was on 06/18/2008.

Malicious software includes 6 trojan(s), 2 worm(s). Successful infection resulted in an average of 8 new processes on the target machine.

Malicious software is hosted on 5 domain(s), including try-count.net, 58.65.239.0, entergrace.com.

Has this site acted as an intermediary resulting in further distribution of malware?

Over the past 90 days, www.ausmini.com/ did not appear to function as an intermediary for the infection of any sites.

Has this site hosted malware?

No, this site has not hosted malicious software over the past 90 days.

How did this happen?

In some cases, third parties can add malicious code to legitimate sites, which would cause us to show the warning message.

Next steps:

* Return to the previous page.
* If you are the owner of this web site, you can request a review of your site using Google Webmaster Tools. More information about the review process is available in Google's Webmaster Help Center.


I had to turn this security feature off to make this post :(

Agree Kev lol

Firstly there are virus' (virii?) that are targeted for Macs, they are not as invulnerable as people believe And I do believe Macs experienced a major exploit/virus last year I think it was through iChat...

It's not a show stopper (can turn it off), and Firefox is correct in saying that there is/have been problems on the site by the sounds of it... so not sure how it's the browser's fault ;)

As for your mac security complacency, I run 2 mac's too, I wouldn't rest so easy as they definitely have their fair share of security issues.

Should I notify the admin of this issue via the email on the main page? or is posting in here enough to get their attention?

Sure, another voice won't hurt.. don't expect anything to be done about it though. The crap can be cleaned out, but the phpBB vulnerability isn't getting patched so the site gets reinfected.
