Quote Function again
« on: December 12, 2016, 08:28:44 AM »
Not sure it was have another infection (there's something about www. w3 . org at the top of the html- purposely set apart so no one clicks it accidentally) or just a problem for me, but the quote function is hanging again.
I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

Using my secret decoder ring, I'm seeing the "seks porno" stuff at the top of the screen again, as before.

Yup, it's back. As before, quote works for me, but preview hangs. I saw that same "screen delay" once when opening a page yesterday that was occurring during the last infection, but didn't think anything of if. Somebody doesn't like Geovario  I guess. :)

Same here.

Workaround:

Right click on quote button and then click "open in a new tab."  The quote will appear in that tab.  Click on that new tab and  you can go from there.

The regular quote function seems to be working for me. I'm using Firefox 45.5.1 -- what are you folks using as your browser?

Aha .. but preview is not working.

I just posted the above with no issue even after using the preview function.  Then I went to edit that post to type this, but the edit function just hung there with the green "loading" bar on screen.

Works for me, running Firefox on WinXP.

Yeah, already notified the hosting people. Oleg's Gallery2 website is allegedly the breach. Hosting people are working on it.

Initial blame was levied on APS. Which I gently demurred to probably not being the case. Looks like it was indeed not the APS. My bet however was on Wordpress, but apparently not. Malicious code removed so situation is safe. Probably. I'll give it another look in case I missed something.

I'll nuke the code and reinstall. I'd say I'd do that Friday, my next day off. But I remember the bazillion "Hey, it's still broken!" messages after I posted "Known issue, it will be resolved on X". So, maybe Sunday.

Yeah, I know I'm well known for being too kindhearted and whatnot. I could modify the code to stay broken for folks who complained after the notice went up in half a dozen threads and be fixed for those who didn't. But...

Huh, got the GLBoD for just a second and then it worked.  No porn, either.  I'm kinda bummed.
If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.
