The Forum Has Been Hacked
The latest post in the reseller board has been hacked. Do not visit it. It will redirect you and will give you a virus.
I have posted it here to get people attention.

Nothing to worry 
We have javascript enabled on this forum and he took advantage of this by adding a thread with refresh redirect. I have deleted those threads and problem has been sorted.
That was a typical stupid method used by kids to make people crazy.

you wont need to click on it. It was refresh redirect code so the thread redirected to the virus containing website in less than 1 second and your machine would have it before you could realize what was happening.

What was the nature of the "Virus"
Most javascript is more annoyances that serious exploits especially if you keep your system up to date

let me know your email address and I will send that code to you. install that virus on your local machine and check its nature
I'll need to change settings of my browser to make it work on my machine.
