Can we have a non-hyperbole moment here?
Malware may happen. It's unfortunate. The powers that be are working on it. It's not like it's been 3 months straight of OMG VIRUSES, there have been non-trivial efforts to fix the problem. Do many of you work in IT doing malware/virus/phishing support? If so you're probably familiar with how when you knock one source down, another is going to come back. There isn't one simple fix for this stuff, and patience is appreciated.
So that said,
What there won't be is rabble rousing of "lets get the shack blacklisted" or similiar shennanigans. I'll just say that's the opposite of useful and I'm done with it.. If you disagree, great, but that's not a discussion for shacknews. If you really have to get it out of your system, you can message me directly. If you have questions about nukes, then message that moderator or a head moderator such as myself, Helvetica or Ajax.
Is there anything you can do to help? First, keep calm and carry on. Protect yourself. Keep a virus scanner, use no-script and the best browser possible. If you're stuck on IE6, that's unfortunate. If you see the ad that starts something, take a screen shot. If you have a tracing program like fiddler running, then double awesome and those logs will tell tons. Those results can be shackmessaged to greg-m.
Thanks
