Hello my fellow Xyliacs.

Someone mentioned getting a redirect ad containing malware while perusing the archives earlier. This has been, unfortunately, a trend on the rise recently. Alot of them came through Keenspot’s ad networks, and first and foremost I want to give them alot of credit, they have been doing everything they can to put a stop to it.

At Xyliatales, and at Keenspot, redirecting ads of any kind are not condoned, especially one containing any sort of harmful program to your computer. Should you experience such an attack, please feel free to email me, Canterrain, with any and all information you can give. The firefox tool Dom Inspector makes it easiest to track down where something is coming from. But don’t feel the need to take chances either. If in doubt, protect your computer.

Kisai, the keenspot tech person, suggests the program malwarebyte for protecting your computer, found at http://www.malwarebytes.org.

Again, any inquiries or problems can be emailed to canterrain(at)gmail.com . See what I did there with the at part in my tech savvines? You know how to make it work right.
