Another one here for a whole lot of characters appearing when clicking on an image.

Also noticed when i first logged in today this site wanted to install an Active X control, some Microsoft Data something or other. I didnt install it as i didnt see a notice to say that it was okay to run on the bulletin board.

Some of the fonts are showing up larger than they usually do aswell

Are these related?

I still can't upload images into private messages.

I browse, double click and the image name appears but when I ckick on add attachment it goes to a blank page rather than show the attachment in the pm.

Anyone else have this problem or have I picked up a virus or something?

i stil cant upload, and now i cant even login to msn.. that dsb.exe must have infected my pc, and now i feel like taking SAU to court.. :\

lol, if you read the conditions when you join the site there is a bit in there about SAU not being liable for such actions as you should have adequate protection.

im just mucking around, relax.. but i suggest u get someone to fix this crap.. the exploit is still there..

We realise there is an issue.

Its a lot harder to fix something than you realise because there are limited people with access.

And the people with access are busy, they have thier own personal lives as SAU Admins/Mods are unpaid...

If your own PC is correctly protected then you wont have an issue.

Please be patient. Constantly posting about the fact it isnt fixed, simply is not going to help the issue especially when your not even a donor :D

For the exploit to work it *needs* Microsoft XML Core Services to be installed. Microsoft XML Core Services are not installed by default on Windows XP, but there seems to be a lot of packages using it, Visual Studio appears to be one common one. You can check in the Add or Remove Programs applet if you have it installed.

> The exploit works in both IE6 and IE7, which makes sense since it's exploiting a vulnerability in an ActiveX object, not in the browser itself. When executed the exploit creates an MSXML 4.0 ActiveX object (88d969c5-f192-11d4-a65f-0040963251e5). It then uses multiple setRequestHeader() method calls to execute shellcode which is included with the exploit. Once executed the shellcode (of course) first downloads the first stage downloader. At the moment it's a file called tester.dat:

16ac9982d177a47a20c4717183493e95 tester.dat

This downloader then downloads subsequent files (yet to be analysed). It looks like some AV vendors are beggining to detect the exploit. At this moment it is being detected by McAfee as Exploit-XMLCoreSrvcs and Symantec as Bloodhound.Exploit.96*. Microsoft also detects it as Exploit:HTML/Xmlreq.A. The best protection, is to prevent the XMLHTTP 4.0 ActiveX Control from running in Internet Explorer, as stated in Microsoft's advisory: http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/...ory/927892.mspx ."

    • It is a kunfine Android screen . Does anyone know the wirering diagram of the fuga ??
    • just an update to this, poor man pays twice  Tried sanding down the pulleys but it didnt do the trick. Chucked another second hand alternator in the na car which I got for free off my mate and its fixed the squelling. Must have been unlucky with the bearings.    As for my turbo car, I managed to pick up a cwc rb alternator conversion bracket + LS alternator for 250 off marketplace, looked to be in really good nick. Installed it , started the car and its not charging the battery.... ( Im not good with auto elec stuff so im not sure if this was all I needed to do but I verified such by using a multimeter on the battery when the engine was running and I was only getting 12.2v )   I had to modify the earth strap for the new LS alternator , factory earth strap was a 10mm bolt which did not fit the bolt on the LS alternator which was double the size so I cut it off , went to repco bought some ring terminals that fit, crimped it onto the old earth strap and bolted it up to the alternator , started the car and same issue. Ran like shit and was reading 12.2 at the battery.  For a "plug and play" advertised kit thats not very plug and play but alas.  My question is , am I missing something ? Ive been reading that some people recommend upgrading the stock 80 amp alternator fuse to a 140 amp but I dont see how that would stop the alternator charging especially at idle not under load.  Regardless ive pulled it out and am going to get it bench tested by an auto elec tomorrow but it would be handy to know if ive missed something silly or have done something wrong.   
    • My wild guess is that you have popped off an intake pipe....check all of the hoses between the turbo and the throttle for splits or loose clamps.
    • Awesome, thanks for sharing!
    • To provide more specific help, more information is needed. What Android screen? What is its wiring diagram? Does the car's wiring have power at any required BAT and ACC wires, and is the loom's earth good?
