You don't even have to open the quickie; just try to see the list.
There is a place in Hell reserved for these people.
Seems to originate from new user Nyx whose profile page is littered with code possibly seeking vulnerabilities
I figured I wasn't alone when I saw this. Luckily I use an iPad , so should be safe. Hope Sol can get it resolved soon and put in better protections.
Looks like Nyx has also hijacked several of the new author profiles as well.
Hi, we're aware of it and are fixing the problem. There is a small vulnerability on the site that someone is exploiting. We should have it fixed and cleaned up shortly.
Glad I read this thread as I was going to respond to Nyx and welcome them to the site. Many thanks to alL!
It seems to be solved. I had a quickee but read this thread and I didn't dare viewing it. Now the quickee has disappeared from my list.
Kiss,
Gacela
I didn't see this thread until after receiving the email connection request. Luckily, "Nyx" was gone before I clicked the link.

Fine, quick work! Some of this stuff can be daunting and troublesome. I see you also deleted the suspicious-looking group.
Thanks for your attentiveness.
Great work, Sol. I guess I missed this whole kerfuffle, but am glad the side of law and order won.
Thanks Sol. Just wondering if my acct is okay as I opened the quickee before the warning came out.
