Spellcheck marked by google as untrusted

Hi,

today when i came to my website to edit content  Chrome showed me big warning that  that my page uses spellchecker.net ... that known to distribute bad stuff etc. So i found topic named "Ckeditor and Spellchecker.net" in this forum and it is very helpfull to at least temporarily disable spellchecker and work without such messages.

P.S. It is not actually a bug in mojoportal, but sorry  have no idea where to post this, just wanted to let you know about the issue and quick solution until spellchecker.net will fix their site.

Regards,

Victor

spellchecker.net is showing up as a reported attack page in Firefox, so they were probably compromised. I'm assuming this is a temporary issue until they get their site fixed.

For some reason it only happens on some sites though. Untill just now we have been using CKeditor on this site and I haven't seen any warnings here but I did see it on another site. For now I've switched to TinyMCE just to be on the safe side. I imagine spellchecker.net will get fixed, hopefully soon.

Best,

Joe

Re: Spellcheck marked by google as untrusted

Another option is to edit the /ClientScript/ckeditor-mojoconfig.js file

set 

config.scayt_autoStartup = false;

and remove all entries you see for SpellChecker or Scayt in the toolbar definitions

then save the file as ckeditor-mojoconfig_v2.js

and add this to your user.config file

<add key="CKEditor:ConfigPath" value="~/ClientScript/ckeditor-mojoconfig_v2.js"/>

that way it will not be affected by the old script being in the browser cache

Best,

Joe

Re: Spellcheck marked by google as untrusted

I followed this last set of directions (and touched my Web.config file so the new settings would be loaded), and while the v2 config script is indeed being loaded, the old version of the script also shows up in the page resources.  So svc.spellchecker.net is still being called and flagged.  Any ideas?

Re: Spellcheck marked by google as untrusted

I don't really see how it would load 2 different versions of the config file. This solution worked for me on 2 sites including our demo site. Are you sure you removed all the entries for spellchecker and scayt from the toolbars?

Re: Spellcheck marked by google as untrusted

It's all good now.  I restarted my Chrome and the old config disappeared.  The new one was still loading the spellchecker, but in my editing I'd somehow reverted the autoStart variable, so I just had to disable it again.

Thanks, and sorry for the distraction!
