Weird message?!

ShredderMaximus · #1 05-18-2011, 10:19 PM

Hey guys, I just wanted to run this one by you, see if anyone else is encountering this...

Everytime I switch over to the "basses" sub-forum or any threads out of it I keep getting a pop-up saying this:

Quote:

Authentication required
The server delimex.ferrarastage.com:80 requires a username and password
Username________
Password________

and its creeping me out, so I was wondering if its my computer with some kind of virus or some TB issue at the moment.

Thanks...

I have been getting the same thing.

Kwin Smith · #3 05-18-2011, 10:27 PM

I got it, too. It IS kinda creepy.

ShredderMaximus · #4 05-18-2011, 10:29 PM

Well, this does kinda make me feel better, but I don't get it, is it phishing for our accounts?

Danielrocks2 · #5 05-18-2011, 10:31 PM

someone might have hacked in to TB

I just realized that we are all in Texas, me just being an hour or so away from DFW, ***!!!!

Doesn't happen to me but I'm on my iPhone. Tried the app and the browser.

T-alk B-ass,
And thank you 254! Though I admit it is a bit of a change, everythings sooooo far apart up here, I'm slowly adjusting!

oh well then i got bad new for all of yall! i was just googling what this message meant right after it kept popping up so many times and this website came up about yall having the same problem and its not just this TB website, i'm using another website and it's doing it to me there.

ShredderMaximus · #14 05-18-2011, 10:50 PM

Did it specify if it was a virus/worm/whatever or something else? How did you google it, I tried and didn't get any results?

Messed Up · #15 05-18-2011, 10:52 PM

Well I can guarantee its not limited to TB board since I only found this board for the first time 5 minutes ago after googling for info on that same crazy pop-up message.

Was afraid it was my machine that was hacked.

And ... I TOO am in Texas ... in Dallas, less than an hour from DFW! That just seems too crazy to be a coincidence.

Edit: googling Ferrarastage.com didn't seem to be getting me anywhere, but adding the word 'virus' got me a shorter list of links, and this site came up like 5th or 6th.

Is this board also powered by vBulletin ?

i just copy and pasted the thing in the quotations and the only thing that came up was this blog website and this other website here's the website:

Wow, this is beyond weird, why would it only be north Texans being affected?!

I believe so, did you happen to come from another vbulletin forum? Maybe thats the issue. I haven't really tried any other sites yet

leetee · #20 05-18-2011, 11:02 PM
