    Mouseover/URL spoofing triggers virus scanners

    Lately I've been getting a lot of reports about Trojan virusses, mostly stuff like URL.Spoof Exploits and such. I couldn't find anything on these machines though. I found what it was...

    Somehow McAffee detects the following notation of a URL as a URL Spoof Exploit: http://www.sapphicerotica.comhahahah...0000&PA=445213 (if this somehow doesn't make sense, check the notation of the banners on http://www.xfreehosting.com/hardcore...0456/sss34.htm)

    It's the '@' between the first part of the URL and the read URL. The first part is made to look like a full URL, but it's send as a password. Somehow McAffee things this is spyware. I'm going to adjust my bot not to accept this anymore since I'm getting a lot of reports. If you want to hide the 'real' URL it might be a better idea to use a mouseover or something...

    Oh, and of course, happy new year! ;-)

            So you have nothing against on mouseovers being used in galleries you list?

              Why should I have something against a mouseover? As long as it's nothing to trick people in there (using a mouseover for a different domain, for instance, making it look as if people go to playboy.com) and there's no Javasc... included (Javasc... Over:window.location=''') I don't have a problem with it. Oh, for those thinking the javasc... thing is a good idea, my bot already takes care of these redirects ;-)

              (very annoying that GFY replaces javasc with hahahahaha)

                I think what he meant was 98% of tgps have a rule that SAYS no mouseovers and most live by that rule..

                also some scripts wont let you submit with mouseover code.
                I have not done any submiting for some time, but I am sure that is what it is...one bans it they all do.. type of rule..

                  Exactly. One of my requirements for hand submit clients is ABSOLUTELY NO j a v a s c r i p t. Makes life much simpler.

                    98%? Not even close to that. I used mousover pretty much last year and only very few did not accept it like pichunter.com for example
