Whats with the LINKBUCKS crap!!!! rediculous, great way to end the site!!!

[w8ye]

I'm not connected with Arboristsite in any way other than being a participating member . . .

All I can say is that it does not appear that Linkbucks or any of the aliases are in Arboristsite right now as Javascripts

what else would you suggest as linkbucks is still popping up only when I visit this site ? using firefox

 

[w8ye]

I'm not that that much of a computer person.

I run Firefox with Noscript and have done that for several years - I have never seen Linkbucks except to hear you guys talk about it.

This was recommended to me by the administrator of another forum where I've been a moderator for twelve ears. We were having trouble with a oriental site like Linkbucks at the time.

Actually...very clever of them.

The links ARE still there.

http://www.linkbucks.com/visitScript/d31da00d AND http://www.dyo.gs/visitScript/42e0081e

They are tied into the login system.

If you are logged in you do not have the links on the page.

If you are NOT logged in both of those links are on the page.

Looks like maybe they have been inserted on login.php. Not certain that is the page but I think so.

I just made a post with a description of the links that ARE back now, but for some reason it went into moderator que again.

Appears the links may be on login.php now as they only appear when logging in.

 

[w8ye]

That explains it then.

ya if you logout and then view page source(assuming you have JS disabled and don't just get redirected) you can see the links on the page.

I am guessing this site puts any posts that have links in them into a moderation que as I think those are the only ones that have had to be approved first.

I'm running Noscript also and now can only log in using reply with quote. Yesterday I didn't have any issues. Maybe there hacking the log-in stuff now?

 

[gsrsol84mm]

Tried clearing everything but the linkbucks are still taking over with javascript enabled.
Both with firefox and internet explorer.

Update from the Great White North
Got on here last night like the old days,even used the search function.
But this morning the linkcrap is back,had to disable javascript to get on.

Thanks for the back door, my login was not working either.

Linkbucks is back in the Javascript window throughout the AS

 

[CJ1]

Linkbucks has nothing to do with it. There is someone who compromised this site that added a linkbucks redirect.

I'm not a computer geek [obviously, it took me this long to get back on!] Anyway the person who is responsible should be jailed for this kinda crap. CJ

 

[w8ye]

The Linkbucks stuff has been removed once again from the main part of AS.

 

[gsrsol84mm]

Nope, still there

 

[w8ye]

If Linkbucks is still in the main part of AS it is not in Javascript!

And where ever linkbucks is, it has never had any effect on my enjoyment of Arboristsite. I have never been re-directed.

 

[Joe Kidd]

I'm now able to log on normally instead of using "reply with quote". I think I'll still run "Noscript". Looks like a good idea for all web use.

I prefer Chrome and could not get here. IE (8 - XP - nothing newer) worked. I (after some light reading) went looking for NoScript and found nothing for Chrome. The Chrome Store has "NotScripts", that one did it.
Thanks for the push

I'm running Firefox under Linux with NoScripts. Haven't had any problems logging on or reading threads. What is this "Linkbucks" thing you guys are talking about? I haven't seen it. In fact I don't see any ads when I am browsing.
