Was AndroidCentral / MobileNations hacked?

[jpr]

For about 2 hours tonight my ISP was blocking all access to AndroidCentral.com and all Mobile Nations websites. It said they were reported malware sites. No problems with any non-MobileNations websites. Access just came back several minutes ago. I'm wondering if the sties were hacked or if it was a false report.

I haven't had any issues here, personally. That's odd.

If you encounter the issue again, we would appreciate it if you could paste a screenshot of what you see! Any error messages or warnings, send them over to me to ensure we take a look!

But to answer your question, NO, we haven't been hacked

I did grab a screenshot last night from my PC. I cropped out my personal info but you can see what the page says. I got this page on the AC forums, on the main website and all interior pages I tried. I also got it on MobileNations.com and all Mobile Nations websites - AC, CB, WPC, etc. My ISP is Sonic and it is their malware blocking page.

I haven't been able to get on the forums on my W7 pc for more than 48 hours in London. Tried browsers, speedtest. lenovo software and W7 network site check says problems at forums' end.
My bookmark to the Note 3 forums won't work, I can type in Android Central. com and I am in the home pages but when I click on Forums obviously the url changes to forums.androidcentral.com and it won't connect.
I have only 2-3 hours to try every evening, so third evening no luck.
I can get the full forums web pages on the stock Samsung browser on my Note 3.
Something is going on.

The headers seem big as well.

@jpr @Madd54 - thanks for reporting. I've sent both cases over to our tech team to investigate!

I'm back in to the forums on my pc on the 4th night, so all good.

Did you figure out what the problem was?

No. I didn't get a chance to try another pc, but can't figure why only the forums section.
