Most likely a java drive by.

Do not click that link, and if you do, DO NOT accept to run the java thing.

It's most likely the same person that was trying to drive-by people using the name "SRL_GIVEAWAY" or something like that.

He is only targetting Registered Users, so be careful and do not click any links.


We need an Announcment from an Admin just to state not to click any links that are pm'ed to you.

Post the name of the person who did it, so Admins can take action.

The name is "SLR_GiveAways" and I think he is already banned.

Yea I banned him.

SRL does currently NOT have any give-aways, and, seeing as none of us actually have rsgp, will not have them in the near future.

So many people got message with a imageshack link or wathever and when you click it said to download a java thing .. Never install these thing !

If he shows up again, tell me and I'll send a very friendly email to his ISP asking him to back off. I know some employees over there.

He's been doing it for a few days now. I've actually banned 2 or 3 accounts already and have IP banned him. SLR_GiveAways is the same person, but from another IP this time. If anyone sees a person spreading such links, please contact the staff immediately!

You can still get viruses on mac. Not saying you did because they just aren't as prevalent as windows ones.

If you see another attempt to get your account (screenshot ip of last login every time) you may want to consider saving needed files and reformatting or restoring to an earlier system image. A RAT can sometimes stick around through almost anything…

It's a sad day that these types of things have finally hit SRL.
