ACF Home Page

Post by Lindus Edwards »

I just visited the ACF home page and it crashed my computer!! A blue screen appeared with some words about java script but I was not able to read it properly as it was only there for a moment. It said something about shutting down my computer to protect it. I know that there was a problem with this forum yesterday but this seems a different one.
Hope all is sorted out soon.

Thank you Lindus for your timely warning. I had a similar experience with script messages last night, but not a crash , fortunately.
I was surprised that the ACF did not put a warning on here, as I (and others I expect) have a need to visit the ACF Main Page only occasionally.

I ran a virus check and the following infected file appeared:

C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\bhoinstall.reg

I hope this information may be of some help.

Regards - Liam.

Hi Liam,
It appears you were infected with a Trojan. Your information certainly was of help.

I believe this was fixed earlier in the day today.
I apologize for any problems this may have caused.

I made a post on the front page about it. I forget that not everyone goes to the main site anymore.

If you're still having issues please let me know.

also if anything like this comes up again, feel free to email me at webmaster@usacheckers.com as i don't always visit the site every day.
