    Default redirecting to filestore72.info

    Hi, it seems this forum has been hacked with a redirect hack which sends people to various sites including the one in the title.
    This happens when you do a Google or other search engine search and click on a link to the Cooksons forum and is a known exploit of vBulletin powered boards.
    I found more info on it here http://www.webhostchat.co.uk/busines...ct-google.html

    Hope this is of some help to the admins,

    Rob.

    Thanks Rob - I'll have another read of the problem (it's been a while since this last hit) but I doubt I can do anything with mod rights, so it may have to wait until Monday.

    I think this may be a problem between the search engine and the cookson site - if I google the cookson website all cookson links that google offer take me to the filestore72 site. At home I have everything bookmarked so it's not an issue. If I access the forum from work then I have to first put in www.cooksongold.com and then scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on "forum".
