**Fletch XXX** · 10-18-2008, 05:12 AM

**Klen** · 10-18-2008, 05:38 AM

In which case, I hope this serves to help him find out the sites responsible, remove them from his system and then contact Google so that he can get his site removed from the blacklist.

I realise you all probably think I'm being stupid with this, but I'd imagine to the bog standard adult webmaster going to his site using Firefox or any browser which uses the Google Safe Browsing blacklist, a big "Reported Attack Site" warning isn't exactly going to make them feel like this is the kind of traffic broker they want to use.

**seeandsee** · 10-18-2008, 06:06 AM

security features warning about such sites are great addon

**Mr.Right - Banned For Life** · 10-18-2008, 06:20 AM

Choker has always been doing all kinds of shit.

He's working on some badass mega-tube site that wouldp probably put everyone out of business.

**rowan** · 10-18-2008, 06:38 AM

"Malicious software is hosted on 5 domain(s), including nudisteens.com, funnyinside.com, 92.62.101.0."

Sounds like Choker has a few nasty buyers (perhaps even only 1) which has tainted his site.

**Iron Fist** · 10-18-2008, 06:51 AM

Well that's helpful in knowing that hes got traffic that might be installed with malware... which probably doesn't convert very good.

**Kudles** · 10-18-2008, 08:24 AM

Thanks for sharing

Firefox != Google

Firefox uses Google's Safe Browsing blacklist, but it isn't actually a Google product. Besides, what's with the unnecessary swearing? Is one of the mentioned domains yours or something?

**GirlsOnYou** · 10-18-2008, 09:04 AM

Weird that they flagged chokertraffic and not just the sites that spread the viruses.

Actually he has launched such a tube site which features lots of full-length licensed scenes that he is actually also reselling.

The problem is that a single buyer with nasty stuff appears to be enough for Google to conclude that his site is up to something suspicious. Don't forget that the clicks are going through his site, and he's redirecting... 10,000 good URLs, one bad, oops you're blacklisted...

If i am not wrong,google bot automaticly marks and remove marks if no more trojan installed so he just need to eliminate those sites and problem solved.Also this could be problem for choker sellers since googlebot could mark them as well.

**TheSenator** · 10-18-2008, 01:47 PM

I notice that stuff awhile ago. Some flags got raised by my own research. I was gonna use his traffic to feed my blog but I didn't want to be associated with some sites on the system that may harm my site.

The majority of Choker's traffic is good but my blog/tube site is way to much quality for their surfers.

**Brad Mitchell** · 10-18-2008, 02:06 PM

Choker does not have trojans on his domains not does he sell traffic to sites that do. He can't stop sites with trojans linking to him.

are you saying that a link in can cause this kind of flagging??

**Choker** · 10-18-2008, 02:38 PM

For you guys who are trolling this thread trying to hint that i sell traffic to or from sites with trojans or that i have malicous shit going on u better watch your fucking mouth. You come here making false claims about me or my system I dont take kindly to that sort of shit. Dont fuck with me on this you dont wantto se my bad side. Enough said.

With that being said, it appears the problem is the backup urls resellers input for their unsold traffic to be sent to. We have banned those accounts and are working as hard as possible to correct the situation. There has been no decrease in traffic. This could happen to anyone, so saying I run fishy shit just pisses me the fuck off so much. If you hada site with hard link trades and one of your trades put fishy shit on his site this could happen to you too.

I have always run a honest program and always will, even if not everyone agrees with what i do. I do what is right and Karma always pays me back in the end. This is a very minor blip for me, im not going to lose any sleep over it. I have had much worse happen to me, I mean hell i survived a massive google banning for selling spots by PR and im still here and stronger than ever because I run a honest business.

My latest stats show that less than 10% of surfers use FF. We are going to set up a alternate domain for sellers to use until FF unblocks us. This does not in any way shape or form affect traffic buyers, hell in fact right now im gonna start crediting all resellers 10% more than they are actually sending.

For all you guys who backed me up here and over the years I really do appreciate it and will continue to. For all you haters and trolls who live in your moommies basement, get a fucking life ok?

**Choker** · 10-18-2008, 02:42 PM

Funny thing is my virus software has gfy banned. AFF too and so many sites its pathetic. 10% additional is in effect NOW so all resellers your not losing anything.

**Iron Fist** · 10-18-2008, 02:52 PM

Were you sitting or standing when you typed that response? A lot of anger in there... always makes me wary when someone needs to bring an uzzi to a knife fight.

**Hansm** · 10-18-2008, 02:53 PM

Who is using firefox 3 anyway, still using firefox 2 here, works better than 3 and using less memory. at least on my computer

**testpie** · 10-19-2008, 07:19 AM

UPDATE: As of 19 October 2008 (today) the site is no longer listed as suspicious by Google's Safe Browsing list (Source: http://safebrowsing.clients.google.c...Fwebmasters%2F):

Code:

Safe Browsing
Diagnostic page for chokertraffic.com/webmasters

What is the current listing status for chokertraffic.com/webmasters?

    This site is not currently listed as suspicious.

What happened when Google visited this site?

    Of the 17 pages we tested on the site over the past 90 days, 0 page(s) resulted in malicious software being downloaded and installed without user consent. The last time Google visited this site was on 2008-10-18, and suspicious content was never found on this site within the past 90 days.

Has this site acted as an intermediary resulting in further distribution of malware?

    Over the past 90 days, chokertraffic.com/webmasters did not appear to function as an intermediary for the infection of any sites.

Has this site hosted malware?

    No, this site has not hosted malicious software over the past 90 days.

Next steps:

    * Return to the previous page.
    * If you are the owner of this web site, you can request a review of your site using Google Webmaster Tools. More information about the review process is available in Google's Webmaster Help Center.

I'm not sure if this is because Choker and his team have got in touch with Google or because yesterday's listing was a temporary blip, but either way, I'd like to apologise to Choker if me bringing this to his attention has caused any problems for him or his clients; I'll try to think before I do next time about the possible negative repercussions of what I intend to be helpful advice.

Once again, Choker - many apologies to you.

If thats the case someone should set up a trojan site and link to all the illegal tubes, lol.

**Brad Mitchell** · 10-19-2008, 08:46 AM

Truth always sets everyone free. I know a lot of people in the industry very well and across all webmaster demographics he is highly respected for being a stand-up, no bullshit guy that works his butt off to innovate and grow his business the right way.

Best,

Brad

Thanks for having my back. Google unbanned us because we banned the resellers that had bad urls as their back urls in our system. At NO TIME were we sending traffic to bad sites. Resellers input a url in our system where their unsold traffic goes to. We did not monitor or care about what url they sent their own traffic to, until now. This could have happened to anyone, so watch your backs.

great to hear

curious how this went down with Google?

He knows, I know, We all know, this is GFY, high trees catch most winds. If he has a problem with the info you shared with us, then it is his problem... If he has a problem with trolls, and they bring out the bad side in him, again, that is HIS problem.... Anyway, you should be given a THANK YOU, cause he solved something he was not aware about till now. Bravo
