Something like a JavaScript Injection, haxorz. 

Notifications were wiped and spoilers broke.

MrWizard has made a thread about the notifications, and spoilers are fixed by removing the custom name.

Who knows? But thank goodness the forum went back to normal. I can even read it on my proud 2012 Macintosh based PC!

Kaboom!

JS injection attack from hosted malware on uruilist.com. It's funny, I actually saw a reference to uruilist.com about a week ago.

Linus finally got enough people to make a massive render farm so he doesn't have to pay for as much electricity.

Our screen doesn't suck! We are going to hire Lizard Squad!  -Pono

Lizard squad doesn't dabble with injection attacks, they're pansies who have to DDoS everything.

AFAIK, hackers using Javascript injection to install malware on computers is really rare (maybe not on IE), since Javascript isn't supposed to have an access level capable of that.

 

Things probably just broke while they were updating, and they got a false positive. Considering the warnings are now gone, it's probably a false positive.

Well there have been quite a lot of instances of Malwarebytes, Avast! and even Google blocking LTT because of malware, and Luke has even posted about the attack saying that if you get a redirection to "uruilist.com" than you should cut the connection ASAP.
