So I was just reading the SailfishOS shellshock bug thread and in there was a link to kernelmode.info thread
http://www.kernelmode.info/forum/vie...&t=3505#p23987
, and to my surprise my IP address had been banned for
trolling
until
"Tue May 05, 2015 12:00 am."
in that forum even though I've never visited that site before.
I managed to "bypass" that ban by changing my router to Jolla instead of our default one (I'm using wlan to browse the internet with my computer), and now I'm even more concerned as our default router in our household has a default password that's mentioned in that topic....
So now I'm wondering if it's just the router that's affected or are the computers too? It
has to be
malware, right? I'm wondering how vigorously should I react to this problem now...
I'm not much of a geek so some advice would be appreciated, thanks.
