and yeah, I get it too. The owner needs to check with Google Webmaster Tools to see what's up.

strange Russian site was trying to run a script.

Hi list,
The problem with xsibase has been fixed. The site still needs to be re-indexed with google so you will still get warnings for the time being.
Please excuse the delay,
Cheers,
Matt

No apologies needed, thanks for taking quick action once it was brought to your attention. We all appreciate xsibase in one way or another. Its absence is noticed. :)

I wonder if it has to do with the ancient forum software? Maybe a security hole in there somewhere.

[Eric Thivierge]

I'm sure that is a big part of it. At this point my thought would be to just clean it out, lock it down as an archive and install a newer CMS / forum and don't customize the hell out of it. The thing that has held it back from getting updates is the fact that so much customization was done to it. Most newer CMS / forum systems have the ability to do what XSI Base is doing now without hacking it.

Another thing to consider is the security of the users info. If you're unable to upgrade and stay current with security features that is not such a good thing either.

I know all of the above is easily said, and hard to get done as we're all busy. Just my 5 cents (Australia doesn't have 1 cent pieces).

I think the forum software was written from scratch in php as a pet project. I do like the site.

Btw as a result of this latest infestation, xsibase.com is blocked at autodesk - or at least in the north america offices ;)

[Ed Harriss]

You are close. The forum is a heavily customized version of YaBB. The infestation problem is being worked on from all sides. We are looking into options at the moment. Sorry for the hassle everyone. More info as we get further along.
