Forum Hack - TexasBowhunter.com Community Discussion Forums

GarGuy · 05-20-2022, 10:59 AM

Since the forum was hacked, is there still an effort underway to correct the problem? I know there are other threads somewhere but since I can't use the search, I just started a new one.

This sucks and not worth the effort unless I'm really bored.

TX_Kevin · 05-20-2022, 11:12 AM

They are looking for the issue, but it is hidden really, really well. They have not sorted it out so far as I know.

GarGuy · 05-20-2022, 11:14 AM

Thank you. I can turn javascript off and log in but as soon as I change a couple pages, it is back on. Can't watch videos with it off either. Sucks...

Android Google Pixel 4a I can choose what sites to use JavaScript. Turning it off ruined most websites, so now I have JavaScript only blocked for TBH. Hope to get it back soon.

I did the same but every page on tbh has a different address so once I start clicking threads, Javascript comes on and BOOM, ****

Sick and tired of having to go into the settings and turn off java. I was blissfully ignorant of java a week ago, now i have to turn it off to log on.

cwill · 05-20-2022, 05:05 PM

I'm waiting as well. I quit trying to log on with my phone and I must say I have been ALOT more productive!

spotsanddots · 05-20-2022, 05:52 PM

Yep my phone still jacked up too. I agree, it sucks to not be able to log on. Ugh.

DRT · 05-20-2022, 06:11 PM

I tried to get on with my phone using chrome a while ago and was hacked. Sucks.

kry226 · 05-20-2022, 06:34 PM

I'm on my desktop on Firefox and have no issues.

Box-R · 05-20-2022, 07:33 PM

Google Chrome, no issues.

N.DaWoods · 05-20-2022, 08:47 PM

Works only when i use desktop view. If I stay on mobile version it is hack city. Reroutes to some bad stuff.

Bluesman · 05-21-2022, 08:45 AM

I'm going to AT&T store today and if I luck out a Android phone guy will be there. Most are iPhone people.
I need a virus protection APP anyway.

bboswell · 05-21-2022, 08:49 AM

I have yet to have any issue with Tapatalk or Chrome on PC.

rolylane6 · 05-21-2022, 09:34 AM

My "subscribed" threads on tapatalk is still a mess. Keeps updating notifications of threads that I've read over and over.

my ignorant opinion is that it's something to do with the DNS routing. if so it's not TBH admins that can fix it, but the admins for the company hosting the forum itself.

Same for me

gburk · 05-21-2022, 10:45 AM

If it was DNS related I would expect everyone to be affected but I’ve not seen anything different recently (safari/apple here). Is there some kind of redirect happening for some browsers?

N.DaWoods · 05-23-2022, 09:07 AM

Any updates on the chances of this being fixed?

SaltwaterSlick · 05-23-2022, 09:30 AM

I have been running with FireFox on both laptop and iPhone without issue through this event... so far...

JTRichardson · 05-23-2022, 10:15 AM

I have had no issues with Safari on my iPhone or chrome on my PC

Wonder whats causing it for some and not others?

It appears to affect those with Androids.

I hear a good ENT Doc can take those out and cure that problem!

dbaio1 · 05-23-2022, 01:57 PM

Android is still about 2/3 of the mobile market so I hope this is recognized. There is definitely a problem within. I will note that all I have to do is select the desktop site selection and it goes away and access is granted but functionality is reduced. Can't post pics and I have never had a problem posting pics.

hogslayer78 · 05-23-2022, 02:07 PM

I have had issues since this started 2 Sats ago and still have issues. I can make it work on Samsung by turning off Javascript but it limits what you can do on other websites and even apps.

Yep and now I can't upload picks to TBH either.

I would like this to be fixed however, because using the desktop site on my computer is tiny and not user friendly. Hope a fix is found at some point.

Dusty Britches · 05-25-2022, 08:29 AM

I really hope this gets fixed, too. It would make uploading photos a whole lot easier for e and I really need my TBH fix during hunting season as well. Plus, I need to be able to access my Private Messages from my phone.

dgilbert · 05-25-2022, 08:45 AM

I hope it gets fixed, I'm tired of all these pervert ads on this tapacrap.

Had my phone checked at a Verizon store and the young man tried every way available to clean or delete it on my Android, but was unsuccessful. Hope it gets fixed soon.

SabineHunter · 05-26-2022, 07:15 AM

This is quite a bad thing. Something similar happened to 2coolfishing where people had major problems signing on for a long time. 2cool was a thriving community and now it is a ghost town.

dgilbert · 05-26-2022, 07:28 AM

If this happen to iPhone as well I would like to see what happens?

Good way to scare off people that may be new to the site from internet search.
You guys need a good IT tech to remove the malware that is in your server. I have a few that are extremely good and can help if you need.

btw my android still redirects to some russian site unless i take off mobile settings

Pineywoods · 05-26-2022, 08:56 AM

Dang, I would have thought this would have been fixed by now. I know nothing about tech and what's involved in solving an issue like this though.

GarGuy · 05-26-2022, 09:14 AM

Yep lots of functions won't work with javascript off. This sucks

Can one of you with an Android see if you still have the issue please.

DaveC · 05-26-2022, 05:24 PM

Sorry y'all are dealing with this.

My work PC is fine.
Ipad and Iphone with tapatalk are fine.

Funny thing is, only reason I'm posting this- my ability to attach pictures with Tapatalk used to take me 3 or 4 tries. Now, starting about the same time as this "glitch" I've been able to attach a pic right away. Probably just an odd coincidence.
