    Whenever I load up Mapcore the first time after booting my computer I get the warning "HTML.Silly/Gen" would try to install. Infact this Trojan is part of an Attacking-Code which can be implented into webpages. Please check if Mapcore has been infected!

    I'm not getting anything. But if this is a phpbb or bb2, then the security isn't the best.

    I'm guessing we won't be updating to phpBB 3 until the final build is released, which happens to be tomorrow.

    Btw. I'm getting this trojan now aswell.

    It's called "HTML/ADODB.Exploit.Gen"

    So... it basically bruteforces open exploits?

    I have no idea what it does and where this came from this suddenly.

    Looking at that, it seems embedded Flash with certain code is one thing that can give a false positive for this thing. It could just be that something harmless in the forum code is similar to that in a virus, hence the detection.

    Looking at the forum source code though, I have no idea whatsoever what could possibly be causing it. Hopefully just upgrading to phpBB 3 (and thus wiping out our templates) will fix it.
