casinocontroller.com in my hosts file - still?

[Zephyrspect]

Did anything ever come out of this after this last post?? I'm left being rather curious right now and I'm also wanting to know what had been included in the original PM that had been sent out And this is only because I, for some reason, recently started seeing that there are some websites that are attempting to prefill with login info for this casinocontroller.com, yet when attempting to access the site specifically, it states that I'm "refused" access.

This is a continuation of this conversation from 2006 - an 18 year old thread.
casinocontroller.com in my hosts file? - Casinomeister Forum

welcome to the forum BTW

Right... I got that much, and thank you, by the way for accepting my account, as it's much appreciated, however, the post was originally supposed to be made as a new moment on this thread mentioned, which is why it's worded as such and hoped that anyone would have reasons behind why this login info showed up on my device because I didn't set an account with them. If I type in login for the site, it then asks for an authentication code, which obviously I wouldn't have? Sorry if any of this sounds rude. It's not meant to be, I promise. Just confusing is all. I don't really understand all of the tech talk as far as VPN, proxy, etc. goes that they were using in the thread, so you might have to dumb some stuff down for me to understand it, and I mean REALLY dumb it down.

Thank you!

No worries. The thread you posted to earlier is pretty ancient, and many of the members in that thread are no longer here with us for one reason or another.

So maybe you need to dumb it down for me.

So, what exactly is the problem?

 

[Zephyrspect]

Ohhhh. Ok, that makes a lot more sense then.

I wouldn't necessarily say that it's caused a problem at all, however I'm just trying to figure out how, why and when it has been added into my list of saved passwords when I've not created an account.

So a few days ago, I was going to to play some games online and when I went to start putting in my login info for the account, the auto fill option from Google popped up asking if I wanted to autofill with sections with credentials that had apparently been saved for a totally different website, being casinocontroller.com, however I've not been to the website before. I felt a little weird about it, so I proceeded to a different site, only to find that it was doing the same thing, and then again with another one. At that point, I decided to see what this website was that the login info was for, and when attempting to access through the IP given, it stayed trying to load the page for the longest time before it said that the page was unavailable, and when using the actual web address, it began switching to a screen that now only says "Forbidden - You don't have permission to access this resource," and since it's apparently login info that's been saved to my phone, I tried the /login variation as well, which proved to have better results and sent me to a login screen and takes whatever has been saved, although it then asks for an authentication code that I would have been provided, even though I never was. I searched emails and text messages and nothing has come up for anything regarding this site aside from what I've found when googling what it is and coming across this forum.

Hopefully, I explained that well enough for you, as I don't always have the best means and effectiveness of delivery and understanding when providing explanations to people.

From a bit of research, casinocontroller.com is related to Rival casino software. I would look/scan PC and get rid of it.

 

[Zephyrspect]

I appreciate the helpful information, sir, and from anybody else that would offer any kind of insight on the matter. I'll start with scanning as you mentioned, although, this wouldn't be for a PC, as it's on my phone (android), which is why I'm as confused as I am about how it got there, you know? Again, thank you!!

I am also seeing the same thing in my phone, I also cannot figure out where it came from, how it got here, or how to get into it without an authentication code which I do not have or received. No emails not text or anything else. Have you found anything out yet?
