Tiki Central access problems?

Pages: 1 3 replies

When I enter in tikicentral.com url, I get a white page wit the following text

"Sidewinder was here FreeBSD hanfordlemoore.com 4.4-RELEASE FreeBSD 4.4-RELEASE"

I can access the message boards from yahoo search.

But any idea what the above means?

There is a virus that is screwing up the entire internet today.

I had that happen - when you log on to TC you get a white screen. But in my case it was because I got booted for a couple of days...

It's this:

W32/Sasser-A is a network worm that spreads by exploiting the Microsoft LSASS vulnerability. Microsoft has issued a patch to secure against this vulnerability which can be downloaded from Microsoft Security Bulletin MS04-011.
The worm copies itself to the Windows folder with the filename avserve.exe and sets the following registry key to auto-start on user logon:

HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Run\avserve = avserve.exe

W32/Sasser-A attempts to connect out on port TCP/9996 and TCP/445 and exploit the LSASS vulnerability. An FTP script is then downloaded and executed which connects back on port 5554 to download a copy of the worm via FTP.
