officialscirra.ourtoolbar.com (edit: be careful if you visit - this is malware)
Ran into this while surfing on the net. Looks like some sort of scam toolbar or something...
Develop games in your browser. Powerful, performant & highly capable.
It's very old and is malware which will attempt to steal your passwords so don't install it! Someone posted it to the forum back in 2008 as an attack, so this isn't new.
I'm un-hyperlinking the URL just to be sure no post skimmers try installing it...
I believe this was that spyware toolbar made by Liji back in the day. It snagged people's account info if I remember correctly.
Don't install this. Stay far away.
Eh, yeah what Ash said. He beat me but dammit, I'm gonna post anyway.
Nooooo! They stole my dog!
Figures, anything with "official" in the name that very clearly isn't official is bound to be spyware. I remember seeing that topic earlier but didn't realize this was the same. Good to know anyway, but I think something should be done to make that thing disappear from the web if possible... Though I don't think Conduit whatever will stop with their shady business with just an e-mail, but hey, it'd say it's worth a try.
Most modern browsers have a way to report web forgeries/malware websites, so you could try hitting that as well.
That's a good idea. Reported it to Google & Mozilla.
Why would somebody do that to an open-source project as awesome as Construct!? Likely a plot from Microsoft, I'm sure!
Likely a plot from Microsoft, I'm sure! Oh gee another "M$" hater, why steal accounts from people, when people simply give them money?

Liji is someone who believes Construct is an illegal version of MMF. He was (as Deadeye stated) the asswipe behind this malware.
This was a long time ago and getting bitchy won't fix anything. Closed.
