    Virus from this site or very rare coincidence?

    Read much? Guess not. I'm not the only person to report this. There is no infection in my computer. I'm not just some computer illiterate smuck, I'm in the computer biz myself. My antivirus has stopped all but one intance that has happened from this site. The browser, antivirus, or whatever...

    Virus from this site or very rare coincidence?

    My response was to Navychop, who IS a pub member, and therefore doesn't see ads, so naturally HE isn't going to encounter a hacked ad stream. Appearantly he has no clue what an ad stream is, or he wouldn't post such an asinine response. Furthermore, the vast majority of people have no clue at...

    Virus from this site or very rare coincidence?

    Doesn't happen everytime I visit the site either. And as I understand it, if your a paying supporter of this site, you have NO ADS, thus no ad streams.

    Virus from this site or very rare coincidence?

    Whatever guys, I'm probably on 150 websites a week give or take, and this the only site that I've ever had problems with the ad streams. Funny how the rest seem to have secure ad streams. Take the info and do what you want with it, or do nothing with it, I don't really care now. I no longer...

    Virus from this site or very rare coincidence?

    Yeah, well doing so doesn't change the fact that ad streams on this site are being hacked.

    Virus from this site or very rare coincidence?

    I was on here again last night gathering info for someone who wants to force the HD GUI on their DTV DVR. I had the Firmware Watcher site up again also, my antivirus advised me of an attempted intrusion, and then it happened. Something got thru, I was able to get it out with malwarebytes. ***...

    Virus from this site or very rare coincidence?

    Thanks, it may well be coincidence. However I posted so that the powers that be could at least err on the side of caution. I did run a few scans- virus, malware, rootkit, etc (including deep scans run out of the windows environment) and all came back clean as I expected. It may be related to the...

    Virus from this site or very rare coincidence?

    Yeah well, being in computers and in the biz for 15+ years, I can say it's not originating from my computer. Its either tied to this site or the firmware tracker site. Both times its happened, I've had those two sites open. Do what you want. I provided the info for anyone who wants to look into...

    Virus from this site or very rare coincidence?

    I have on two occasions had my antivirus software inform me of a blocked intrusion attempt while on this site. This time, just a few minutes ago it happened for the second time and is why I found this thread. The only other site I had open this time was the Dtv firmware watcher site. I have a...

    CE's for the first weekend of December

    I have an HR22-100, and I had to do the 02468 as soon as the blue lights on the front of the unit came on. So, its before the unit displays anything on screen.

    DVR Scheduling from smartphone question.

    Yeah, I'm currently signed up for all email from Direct, figuring if it's too much email, I'd just change it later.

    Was There Really a National Release of the New HD UI?

    A new one (least not listed in this thread anyway) is in the wild, 0x58D. Updating my HR22-100 as I type this. Edit: Updated and working great on my HR22/100 and H25's so far. The HR22/100 is rather fast now, not as fast as the H25's, but a great improvement.

    DVR Scheduling from smartphone question.

    When i powered it off, i scheduled a recording that would start till the beginning of the next 1/2 hour. It was 1:02am, and scheduled to record at 1:30am. Hmmm, never got any emails from the D either, even for the one that did record.

    DVR Scheduling from smartphone question.

    I just had Direct installed last Saturday, and so far enjoy it quite well. I was playing around with the DVR scheduling from my smartphone, and initiated recording while i was sitting in front of it, so I know it will work. So, I powered the DVR off, and scheduled a recording via smartphone app...
