I've been working on a new version of the spyware logging script I, and a few other people on here, ran last year. While it can't check for everything it will find the users that are most in need of a clean up.
The idea is that running this on as many sites as possible will get useful stats to show people, but the new version will also warn infected users and point them to how to get clean - either a mini site or to the
Microsoft spyware pages, which are well presented.
Anyway, I spent all morning trying to create an alert image, but I can't make anything I like. I was thinking of something like the
Make poverty history slash, as the idea was it would continue to get displayed until the user clicked on it, but I can't get the balance between simplicity and enough content right.
The other option would be for the script to just show the information to the user once (as a large image over the current page) in which case it needs to be worded to make them act.
Actually, writing this has made me realise that doing both is probably best, a large ish alert when they are found to be infected and a discreet reminded if they don't act.
Still needs a logo..
