Hi everyone,

EMF has now been upgraded to phpBB version 3.1.3 with new security measures installed.
Hopefully this will stop those porn re-directions from re-occurring if EMF was the source.

THANK YOU Mark :idea:

The EMF team

I just got one of those redirects a few seconds ago even before I logged on. Perhaps it was stale cached data. I'll clear my browser and keep an eye out to see if it happens again. Your efforts keeping the site operating efficiently are indeed appreciated.

Hi Ockham,

The problem could be with our EMF Web hosting company getting hacked.
I've written to them today outlining the problem.
We will get this virus cleaned out eventually....
much like RSE ;-)

I will keep you all updated.

David

Hi Ockham, everyone,

Looks like the problem was on the servers side.
If anyone still gets those "adultfinder' redirections please let me know straightaway

Thanks...

David

here is the email I received from our EMF hosting service ALLWEBCO support

Hi David

Sorry for the trouble...
That problem was server side and was resolved within the past couple days.
Have they reported the problem existing in past few days?
You should be receiving any current complaints? Please let us know if you do.

Kind Regards
