    PS: Yes I am on RC30, too. My RC19 just upgraded to RC30 about 2 weeks ago.

    For the people this is happening to...I'm curious to see a ratio of people on 3G and people on WiFi when it started happening.
    I've got a few people who mentioned it but some people didn't.

    I'm just trying to put as much information together as possible, get some numbers going. We gotta get them working on this ASAP...

    I wonder... since many of the applications are tagged.. basically registered and have a direct connection on a way to make someone liable.. for sending malicious software out... I highly doubt developers would do such a thing... especially since each app is "sand boxed" so it would not effect other programs... of course the browser is installed by google so it wouldn't be them... I really doubt it's an application doing this because... I read someone got hit with a multi-million dollar lawsuit for spamming facebook users... lol... if this were a similar situation... the app developers would get hit with something in that regards... thats why I doubt it's a developer or its from an app...

    So really what I am wondering... of you who have this problem...
    How many of you did the "Manual RC29 update"? or any manual update?

    Same thing for me. I had the same phony site on my pc months ago and it was malware.

    This has nothing to do with Android, it is a known problem with D-Link routers:


    http://www.breakitdownblog.com/d-lin...acks-your-dns/


    (or it is possibly the following problem, though less likely


    http://www.darkreading.com/security/...leID=211201119


    This is a case of people using their G1 over a WLAN connection, through a D-Link router with the above problem… nothing suspicious here, move along.


    For the conspiracy theorists here: I found the link to this thread on Android Authority. I find it rather laughable that their post included the sentence “One of the main concerns of Android being open-source is the security.”


    Firstly, does anyone really believe that this could be due to a bug due to some malicious user contributing some change upstream, which made it past the Android codebase maintainers, and somehow managed to get rolled-out by a T-Mobile OTA update, when (1) large numbers of open source contributions to the Android platform haven’t yet started flowing in (as opposed to apps that *run* on Android, of which there are many), (2) the Android devs are still scrambling to have the dust settle after the public release of both the platform and the G1, and are at this point highly unresponsive to bugs filed in the bug-tracker etc., because they have their hands full, and (3) T-Mobile has only rolled out two very minor updates to fix nagging bugs, and haven’t yet rolled out any large platform changes (and in fact there haven’t been many changes to the underlying platform since their release…).


    Secondly, does anyone really believe that “security through obscurity” is a more robust form of security than open source? Ask any security company what they think about Microsoft’s approach.

    I had the same thing happen to me. I opened a browser window clicked menu, more, scroll down to settings then I cleared my cache, history and cookies. That seemed to cure the problem. Good Luck

    Please read the thread before posting. Someone already had this idea, yet all of us who had this problem had it when using the cellular (Edge/3G) network, and were unable to recreate the problem if we used our own WiFi. Also, I don't have a D-Link router, nor do I have my Netgear router still using the Default password.

    In addition, if it were my router, don't you think I'd have the same problem on my PC that's also using it? Or my iPod Touch?

    Edit: Note, it might have also helped if you read the the first article that you posted. It says it went to a subscription page that was "like" the virus pages. Again, this is different, and I'd see it on my PC as well.

    I just posted an item for sale on ebay and I wanted to track it on my phone so I went to www.ebay.com and did a search for 'samsung epix' so I can find the phone and see the bids. When I clicked on the search button I got an erro page saying that the browser cannot display the page. I refreshed the browser and got a pic of a naked chic. I hit back and then seached again and I get a pic of the same naked chic. I can no longer do searches on ebay for items.

    I had to fire on my computer email me the link to the item I'm selling so I could bookmark the item I'm selling to the G1's browser. This is so annoying. I can surf for porn when I want, not when I need to get things done on my browser. Also I'm in Southern Oregon so I was on edge.

    BTW the chic is not even hot
