I fairly recently started using Posterous (google it yourself if you’re interested) as a handy way of posting things to this here blog of mine.
Also recently, on two occasions now, visitors to this site have reported to me that they are getting Malware warnings in Safari or Chrome, warning that this site is infected with some kind of virus or trojan or something.
The code in question seems to be a little iframe loading up from some random IP address that I’ve never heard of. A quick google reveals that I’m not the only one having this problem.
So – OK, I understand the problem, but how the hell did that iframe get into my code? Since it ended up in a post auto generated by Posterous, I can only point the finger at what is unfortunately an otherwise excellent service.
I shall not be using Posterous again, so let’s see what happens. Please report any Malware reports or warnings you get while visiting this site, and if it happens again I will continue investigating.
Thanks to those who pointed it out this time, and apologies if any harm was caused.
–c.
