Perhaps not the post, but something *in* the post warrants an alert. Some anti-badstuff programs not only scan for malware, but follow found links to *other* locations and search them too. A posted URL to a photo hosting site that is "infected" with an iframe to a known malware server site might get investigated by antimalware/safe surf type programs. Do you recall the "price of rice in china" post I made a while back? It turned out that I posted a URL that was currently (or at one time) leading to malware, a safe surfing browser feature finding that post on a web based NNTP gateway could make one believe the gateway itself was infected because the safe browsing feature followed links posted there to exploits with no teeth. |
