Okay I'll answer with what I know (I'm by no means an expert).

1) Yes you can get all kinds of stuff from just visiting web pages or being redirected to them. It doesn't have to be something you directly download and run.

2) That being said Avast! picks up all kinds of stuff when I go to certain sites I cannot mention here and nothing came up from that Unity site.

3) Using his method of getting people to his site.... the thing is probably a keylogger or worse... I would not run it.

4) Can we run an IP trace and report him to homeland security? I know its not legal to do what he's doing.

You guys are giving Salty way too much credit.

Salty is well known for failing at everything he's ever tried to do in his life.

Failed at EQ, failed at running foh forum, failed at starting his own company RL, the list goes on.

Sorry, I misread your OP. I didn't know you installed the Unity shit.

I know I didn't.

I'd be weary if I was you.

This isnt RnF, he has a legitimate question. Stop trolling because hes worried one of these RnF forumquesters is actually redirecting people to a questionable page and is worried about his computer security.

Shouldn't have to deal with people like this
The trolls are the ones posting that everyone who goes to the site now has a keylogger.

Installing a keylogger - probably not.

However, if you 'log in' using EQBrowser (I admin I have not been there) they could certainly cache your credentials and have your login server acct/ password.

Lots of things can happen from a website if you're not protected. Don't think you're safe just because you didn't click on anything.

For a quick fix to the redirects, go to you're user CP page, click the edit ignore list link, an finally type in the name 10man and click ok. This will fix it until he creates a new forum name and you will have to repeat this process. In regards to the key logger I highly doubt it, dont viruses and Trojans typically come in executables? So I think you should be ok.

Adding 10man to my ignore list worked. THANK YOU!
