Vanguardngr.com Is Reporting "Attack Page" by egift(m): 9:47am On Jul 11, 2012 |
Just visited www.vanguardngr.com and it reported attack page! (I have attached a screen shot below) - Is it just me? Also I am posting this to ask, what causes a site to report such message? I will not like to have any of my sites displaying that. And my security settings on the browser is just moderate.

I just visited the site about 30 minutes ago and didn't get the error. I too use firefox exclusively. Maybe the attack is location-specific or was detected and taken care of before I got there. About 3 or so years ago, I got a similar message on my site. For some odd reason, something told me to go to my google webmasters page. When I got there, I was told that the site was a victim of iframe inclusion. I look at the view source and found the iframe included. Consequently, I took it out. The site hasn't fallen victim of an attack since. The site is an ecommerce site, that uses opencart. |

Update: I clicked on the following link on the site and got the "attack" message: http://www.vanguardngr.com/2012/07/group-to-declare-state-of-biafra-nov-5/ Considering for today, I didn't find any news links on their site worthy of clicking, that may explain why I didn't get it on their home page. Of course, having been the victim of malware/virus attacks as recently as last year, I am not going to click other links to confirm my suspicions |

yawa-ti-de: For fear of being infected by anything I was not too keen to browse around with other browsers. |

yawa-ti-de: Thanks for the update. It seems if you dismiss the message the first time it does not come up again. One other issue I have notice is: How can a website as large as Vanguard not have a "Search Bar"? At least, they can put Adsense Search on it. |

Maaan! I have been asking the same question about search bar for the longest. They used to have it before but then, someone in all their "wisdom" decided against it. Now, I have to literally go through all the stories and rely on my google news feed as opposed to going straight to what I want from their site 1 Like |
