CCBL: http://www.ccbleague.com

All enquiries to "CCBL Commisioner" <CCBL@ccbleague.com>

Alternative history from 1936
16 teams, 2 leagues of 2 divisions
League championship play-off, and World Championship Series
Sim schedule (regular season): 10 games every other day

Opening Day 1968 on Wednesday 30th March 2011

Teams available:

Philadelphia: struggled in 1967 but a strong draft could quickly turn things around - worst to first is a regular phenomenon in the league.

San Francisco: below average performance in 1967 due to inactive owner.

Houston: Surprise package of 1967 winning its division and running the Whitesox close in the Play-off series.

Los Angeles: Took a rather weak division at a canter and forced Cincinatti to game 7 in the play-offs.

Upgrade: In a just completed vote current owners elected to bypass an upgrade to OOTP 2011 but move to 2012 when a stable version is available later this year.

Yeah, I'm getting the same report visiting your "game" directory. My guess is your reports are infected which in the past has been a problem for a lot of online leagues, but hasn't been so bad recently. I couldn't readily see where the infected code is, but I only looked at a few pages. It'd probably be best if you deleted your reports, uploaded them fresh and took some other safety measures like changing your ftp accounts and passwords. You can also find other tips in past threads.

Hopefully you don't mind, but I'm going to edit out the link in your OP. Feel free to put it back once you think it's safe.

By the way, WOT (Web of Trust) is a great tool available for most popular browsers that helps prevent you from visiting infected sites. It also threw up a warning about your site when I visited it.

Interestingly enough, "game", "lgreports", and "news" all trigger alerts, but "html" doesn't. Maybe it's not the actual reports, but something in those parent directories.

After thorough investigation I can find nothing in any of the directories mentioned which could be responsible for anything described above. I'm inclined to think that paranoia and false reporting which is sadly rife is the most likely cause but as we have now changed domain and refreshed files several times in any case perhaps the complainant would care to revisit the site and let me know if there are any continuing alerts (or at least indicate the means by which he came by the report as I have been unable to obtain a similar one). It's hard enough recruiting as it is without this kind of nonsense hanging over our heads.

We could revisit the site if you posted the new web address. Going to the old one just brings up a godaddy page saying the domain name has expired.

Don't worry too much about this hanging over your head. As I said earlier, many of us have gone through this so most people here should understand. It's that you're taking care of it that counts. Once you get it fixed just start a new thread and ask me to lock this one for you.
