Suspendeddomain.cn affecting Lotus Talk browsing

Just started noticing the a page called "suspendeddomain.cn" keeps popping up in my browsing history only when I'm on LotusTalk.

I'm now having problems going forward and backward while browsing LT because my browser keeps looking for the "suspendeddomain.cn" site.

Anyone else having the same problems?

I'm having the exact same problem. I like to click the back button on my mouse to return to the new postings list and I have to click several times to get back once.

guessing its an advertising link site thats gone over bandwidth quota or not paid up, add it to your hosts file and point it to an existing site thats fast, like google.

+1. It definitely seems linked to LotusTalk somehow. Maybe it has something to do with the new, fancy pop up ads? I'm running IE6, BTW.

Yes, IE7. The page just freezes when I try to use the "back" button. Keeps getting stuck on the suspendeddomain.cn page.

The site is becoming somewhat of a PITA to use after the, uhm, acquisition...

You are getting them on firefox, it just isn't showing up in the history. Check your adblock list if you have it.

I had a look into this, worryingly suspendeddomain.cn is blacklisted for being the source of Zbot infections, its popped up on another auto forum too (diesel powered), so its entirely possible one of the root servers that runs these sites has been compromised with zbot/zeus.
i'd block suspendeddomains.cn

yes
identical problem for me also.

I think we need more embedded advertising to fix this problem.

other forum affected
"back" button doesnt work in browser? - Diesel Forum - The Diesel Stop.com

threat report
ThreatExpert Report

blacklisted
http://malwaredomains.com/updates/20...s.20081022.txt


It looks like they're already moved the trojan delievery page /go.php so no one should have been affected, but it may have been live before i checked it this morning, its common for malware sites to move the delivery paths around, or change domains.

online virus scanner, in case you don't have one, you do not want a zbot infection.
Free ESET Online Antivirus Scanner


edit: looks like they fixed it.

We are looking into this right now, for those affected, go to Useragent.org and paste your user agent info in this thread. The tech guy will be working on this.
