Why didn't someone say don't click on the WiganWorld link on the blog site just yet as it may have been hacked, I clicked on it thinking Brian was telling us something

Surely that should be the admins job Dougie.

I would have thought that admin would check the post before allowing it on the site.

You very rarely seem to get any response on these boards from admin these days

Should at least acknowledge that the problem is being looked into. I have cleared all my browsing history cookies just in case nothing nasty was lurking

That is good Jazzy.

Its a good idea to do a virus sweep of pc for anyone who visits hacked pages/websites, just to be safe.

How easy is it to find a posters Internet address, while there using this site.

bb how easy is it for who to find? admin or yourself?

Replied: 26th Jul 2015 at 18:56

Everyone who visits a site leaves their IP Address. So very easy.

Unless you're using a VPN like Cyberghost, then you're invisible, technically speaking

Brian is away for another week so no doubt it will get sorted when he gets back off holiday. Al I can suggest is that you dot log onto the BLOG topic until it's sorted.

I've just scanned the Wigan World Blog page at Virus Total. It reports no viruses at this time.

What I mean is, can anyone on find another members Internet number as I seem to remember someone posting people's numbers on here, because they wouldn't be intimidated by him, it was he's way of trying to get back at them.
