Google warns 20,000 websites they could be infected with malware
- drcube 15y ago>"Specifically, we think that JavaScript has been injected into your site by a third party and may be used to redirect users to malicious sites" Funny, there was just a discussion here yesterday asking "Why would anybody use NoScript?"
- slig 15y agoI'm pretty sure anyone savvy enough to install NoScript would notice if he/she was redirected to a malicious site.
- FreeFull 15y agoThe malicious site could exploit some vulnerability in the software you're using though.
- GoodIntentions 15y agoNothing says the current user of the machine is the tech-savvy installer. My mother's comp has no-script on it, but she is in no way strong technologically. A "mom-level" user may well enable scripts when prompted by an artful redirect like say: 1. A clone of your bank website (if you were headed there) 2. A page-not-found or server error page that looked normal.. 3. the old "virus alert" scam
