Mybb forum is infected - brett7 - 10-27-2011
Hi, a friend of mines mybb forum recently got flagged by google as malicious.
It runs mybb version 1.6.4 it also has a shoutbox plugin which I think is (http://mods.mybb.com/view/shoutbox) When you try and visit the site it says that there is a possible javascript exploit. It appears to make a 1pix by 1pix sized iframe which links to another website. I think the problem is perhaps caused by someone injecting code into the shoutbox or something. Has anyone else had any problems like this or know how to fix it? Thanks for reading and I hope someone can help
The website is, WARNING CAN BE DANGEROUS
