Not sure might have a virus on my website
Yesterday I got on my Website and the Portal was looking weird..most of my icons and buttons was missing and one of my Widgets was wacky..all over the place..so I took off the Widgets and put them back on one at a time with the stuff that was supposed to be in there..but one of them was going in..contacted one of my Administrators to see if she could send me another picture figured it might be it..kept it off until she could get back with me..still have it off..wasn't her picture..
Was going to do a factory restore yesterday anyway so decided to do it earlier than I thought..figured that might fix the problem..nope didn't..
This morning and this afternoon I did 2 more factory restores and the same thing..
On the Portal instead of navbar I have 4 pictures of 4 different guys..now they are not nude or anything but they should not be there..
I just went in as a guest and they are not there..I guess I am the only one seeing them..my other members are not seeing them as well..
I have taken off everything that I had added yesterday thinking well it has to be something that I added..nope..
Nobody can see it but me..so what is going on..
I don't know how to take a picture of the screen to show you so unless I get a staff member to go in under my name nobody will see it..
Please help..driving me nuts
Thank you in advance for all your help
Now I just went back in and those pictures are not just in my Portal they are in the Forum itself in the navbar..???
Ok just went back in and they are gone from every page..going to keep this open until I know for sure..maybe someone can give me some advice on what to do if or when they show back up..driving me nuts..

Re: Not sure might have a virus on my website
Hello,
Let me see if I understand correctly, you have images missing and/or some added on your forum and you are the only one who experiences this? Have you tried clearing you browser's cache and cookies and/or your forum cookies to see if this solves the browse? Have you also tried using a different browser or devics to see if the problem occurs from them?
As for how to take a screenshot, this tutorial should help you learn how to take one: https://help.forumotion.com/t140199-how-to-take-a-screenshot#952901 .

Re: Not sure might have a virus on my website
It sounds like there was an issue with the image hosting site. Sometimes you will see different images. Also when an image has been deleted or moved, you will get a broken image symbol.
This has happened to me on occasions. On one forum which is not hosted by Forumotion we all got a big surprised when there was a glitch with the image hosting site.
