Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

Exploit Toolkit Website 33 Attack
For the second time in a week, I've gotten a popup from my Norton Internet Security when I've accessed the site. The details are in the attachments.
It doesn't happen every time I access it, but this specific threat has only happened when I accessed it. One possibility I was thinking about, perhaps the redirect is coded in one of the banner ads that rotate on the main page? Since the redirect occurs as soon as I had accessed the page, I didn't have the chance to even see what banner ads(s) were up at the time.
I'll post if/when it happens again.
Anyways, if anyone else has had this happen, chime in.

The destination IP address shows up in Latvia.

Nothing here. But looking at that error screen of yours, it appears to be saying that the attack is coming from your own PC. Or am I just reading that wrong?

I believe it's saying that because that's where the Internet Explorer resides.

I know this might sound dumb, but did you scan your own computer using another virus checking program?

Doesn't sound dumb at all. The only anti-virus software I use is NIS, but I also use Spybot S&D as well, neither have come up with anything.

I'm Getting Them Too!
Rich I've gotten 3 attacks in 2 days. My Norton says it's Blackhole Toolkit Website 36, Blackhole Toolkit Website 31 and Exploit Toolkit Website 33. What I've read via google my Norton IS 2013 is saying that there is malware loaded in an add somehere on Fauna and every time I visit Fauna's website Norton is blocking an attack from this malware which is trying to expolit vulnerabilities on my pc.
Google is saying the malware has to be wiped at the website hosting servers end. According to Norton this malware is very high risk. The malware tries to load a trojan which steals login password info. So if you pay your bills online BEWARE! I've done scans on my pc and Norton says it's not infected. Since yesterday Norton has blocked 3 high risk attacks and I only get them when I go to Fauna.

For the 3rd time today, my AVG blocked a threat. Not 4 minutes ago, I clicked on an ad for Bufo alvarius adults posted by a "Bruce Banner" and got the latest threat blocked. I, too, only got the threats here.
Unfortunately, I didn't look closely at the threat, so can't ID ... but I use AVG, Spybot S&D, Malwarebytes and CCleaner, and use all regularly. (Can you call me paranoid? lol)

Beats me. I haven't seen anything of that nature myself. I took a look around on the server for both the FaunaClassifieds.com and FaunaAds.com files, and nothing looks out of place there. If it is a particular Google ad that is causing the problem, I can block it if I know the source URL for it, and alert Google about that problem.
But Google ads aren't really as content focused as they used to be, and are more weighted towards YOU and other places you have visited and what keyword searches you might have used in their search engine. So it's quite possible that I will NEVER see the same Google ads that someone else is seeing here.
So if it happens again, all I can ask is that you try to determine the actual source of the problem and I'll do what I can about it. Not much else I can do at this point with the information provided.

I just went back to see if I could ID the blocked threats on my AVG program ... naturally, the info was not archived. I will pay much better attention if it should happen again.
The scan I ran was clean.
