Potential Malware at Gensokyo.org
(1/8) > >>
helvetica:
User cr0gon has sent word that Gensokyo.org has recently begun triggering malware warnings as well as receiving a trojan warning from the Ten Desires English patch download. We will try to look further into the issue but until then it is suggested to stay away from Gensokyo.org, especially any patches or other content hosted by them. We are also wordfiltering any links to Gensokyo.org as a precautionary measure.

Another source for English patches for Touhou games can be found at https://thpatch.net/

Will the High Scores sub-board be affected by this? A fair majority of replays are linked via the gensokyo.org uploader, and having all of them suddenly wordfiltered would feel like a major hindrance to the scoreboards. Do you have a fix in mind, in case the replays uploaded via replays.gensokyo.org aren't safe?
Kilgamayan:
If Gensokyo.org fixes itself and the links all work again at some point, removing the word filter will fix everything. If not, you'll probably have to find a new host for replays.

As it stands now until we can get in contact with the Gensokyo.org admins and figure out the situation I would not access anything from the site, especially anything you download and run locally. I unfortunately have no fix available except in in the absolute worst-case scenario of mirroring the content and sanitizing it by hand if the situation is not resolved by the the administrative staff there.

Looks like they're working on it. Maybe Nietz can clue us in more here. Hope they get matters resolved soon.

I like their replay system. Worst case scenario would be some incredibly patient person making a similar website, and then everyone can re-upload all their replays there, provided they still have them \o/
