Harmful Active X In A PTP
« on: February 21, 2009, 11:54:54 AM »
I was clicking my ptp email links for OrangeBiz to a PTP page for PeachBiz. I got a warning message that the page being promoted have a nasty ActiveX in it. I have my Internet settings to not download ActiveX components from sites that are not trusted, but only download ones that are true activex ones. I do not know the name of the site being promoted because the page did not load since the blockage of the activex. Must be the whole page is very buggy at the best.

Update on my CrazyBrowser on the PTP issue. It keeps showing a popup for Lollipopmails, but it also saying on the bottom like IFrames and CherryMails, CakeMails and so forth. Could one of these sites have an 0-IFrame in them?

Out of curiosity, does it do any good to do those sites in FireFox with NoScript running? I used to have accounts on grape and peach, but have been in-active on them for months, since there was some controversy about virus issues on one of two of those sites. I know that NoScript blocks a lot of garbage, but still, I am a bit leery of doing several sites because of issues in the past. Or are they still running 0 iframes and such, and that is where the major problem lies?
