SON Upgrade to 3.8.1 - Mar. 21, 2009

SON has been upgraded from 3.7.1 to 3.8.1 in order to combat the recent trojans/hijackings/etc. as discussed in http://www.son240sx.org/forums/showthread.php?p=389851#post389851

If you notice any problems in the next little while from this upgrade, please mention it here.

Let’s keep trolling to a minimal.

Once again, things like this can crop up at anytime so be careful how you surf the web and protect yourself by installing the latest virus/malware/adware scanners and having it actively monitoring your system at all times.

Thanks,

by any chance will itrader be back up and running?due to the upgrade

yes i would also like itrader back if at all possible. it was a good way to keep tabs on people that are good to deal with.

Yeah…itrader?

if you bring back itrader, Fobwall will pay my $10 to become a member… right fobwall!!! angry black guy face, like MR. T

OLD! I’ve been a member since like last year. Welcome to 2009 Junior. :slight_smile:

how come itrader didnt work before?

well pay for me rich boy!! lol

will an admin please respond with atleast a where working on it or no more itrader?

I’m working on iTrader. It’ll be up soon. Sorry for the (huge-ass) delay.

I wasn’t able to browse son for over 6 hours. It kept telling me administrators wanted me to view this thread and then it would 404 every time.

^^^dont worry, youre not the only one.

just click on ‘‘home’’ and it works, well thats how i got around that message to put me in the thread it wanted me to see

I tried that too. I clicked all the links up top and nothing worked. I just kept getting 404 errors saying that all the .php files were missing… :/:

I still got that pop up, it came up when it re-directed me.

I went to “www.son240sx.org
typed in my user and pass
And then on the re-route to the frontpage for the forums the pop up came up.

i signed out then clicked home on the signed out page

The homepage tries to redirect you to:

Which doesn’t exist. I have fixed it so now it points correctly to for any future threads:

Good to see this site is back up and running, I don’t post much but was surprised when my login info didn’t work anymore! Let’s hope this version stays strong.

I got that weird page opening again today when I clicked on the thread “opinion”.

Norton Antivirus has been disabled and I can’t get it back. Internet Explorer is F’d

Hey G, I’m posting from my phone since my PC is in full scan mode right now. I was reading about the problems that people were having, but no issues on my end until today. I went to the forum main page and a new tab opened in FireFox for no reason, then crashed my browser. After that my scanner picked up some Malware, my PC exited all the programs I was running then reset itself…

I’m boot scaning right now to see if I can find it, but something definitly happened. My PC was free and clear last night so I’m not sure if I picked something up on my own or not. I’ll let you know what I find.
