This is a lot of helpful de-bugging info. Thanks for taking the time to detail it!


I feel confident that Rich Points (community cycles) is already reading these emails, but incase he isn't, I've directly CC'd him on this email. (Rich is, as far as I can tell, the admin/owner of bike collectives wiki.)

Rich brought up some of the issues with the bike collective wiki at this year bikebike, stating that there is constant spam and need for more admins.

This may be a good time to directly address some of the issues regarding the wiki. If any one has any good ideas, or feel like they want to know more about the issues, we can form a group to discuss this.

I believe you may be right, Ron (look at 'Next Steps' below). This is what I was able to see when I got the malware message from Chrome. I apologize if this is old news in this discussion.

I got the same warning when I accessed the site on my Linux netbook over the weekend. I don't get the warning at work through either Chrome or IE 9.

The Wiki is running an older version of Wikimedia which is vulnerable to attacks is my best guess. 1.17 is really old.
