    Typo in the google analytics url.

    Exact error:

    analytics[dot]google[dot]com - is only for making statistics from webpages, so should be no harmfull stuff..

    Annoying, it is though.

    Phising link from attempting to steal your password to your google account, slipped by on the adds most likely.

    I'm sure boub or someone will come in here and hit me for saying something that is completely wrong.

    Notice google-anaiytics, not analytics.

    It's spelled with a i instead of an l, as is a common trend among malware these days

    Same happened to me just now. I have to say I'm impressed at Google though, I entered "google-anaiytics.com mmo champion" as a search query and it found this thread, even though it was created like 5 minutes ago

    There is malicious code on the front page of mmoc in the form of a script injection. The script's domain, google-anaiytics.com (notice the I instead of an L), is hosted on Cnmsn.net, located in China:

    I think I'll just stay away from mmo-champ until this is resolved.

    Me too. Would be nice to get an update on when this will be resolved, is there a way we can "notify" someone at MMOC or should we just wait until someone sees this?

    I'm guessing the forums are safe? since we have no adds here

    I'll keep refreshing the homepage and tell you if anything happens.

    The code doesn't appear to be showing up on the forums, only the front page. PS: It has nothing to do with the ads.

    I sent a PM to Boub when I first saw it, but sent another message right afterwards telling him that I found some forum posts about it, so he probably knows once he gets it.

    I am running google chromes with notscript. Its like addblock but it blocks a lot more then adds. It basically blocks all java scripts unless you manually allow it.

    So when i go to mmo-cham front page the maleware simply doesnt load because its block. However it is in the list when i open notscript though so its still there.

    So either stay away from mmo-cham untill its fixed or be smart and get something like notscript for chrome or noscript for firefox. This way your always covered in the future.

    If you block ads though, free sites like this might die or become non-free.. =(

    It was put into the "Patch 4.1 Bugs and Blue Posts, Scott Mercer Interview, GC - Number of Abilities" headline. It seems to be removed now. although i am saying this with caution as i dont want anyone to get hacked.

    However this was not done by a add.

    The nice thing from notscript is that you can enable sertain sites/adds that you know are safe but keep unknown things blocked.

    This is known malware and there are many like it.

    http://www.malwareurl.com/listing.ph...anaiytics.info (near the bottom)

    I'm pretty sure that:
    google-anallytics
    googie-analytics
    google-amalytics
    etc. aren't all misspellings....
