Found in the error.php file

You can either replace the error page with another, or delete all on the text within the php file with text from a safe error.php file

What happened you say?
My website got shut down by my webhost. They told me there was a virus on on of my websites and told me to upload a safe copy of the website..
Well I don’t have a copy of my website. They have a copy of my website.
but. I couldn’t do anything. SO I downloaded the whole website via FTP. and decided to locate the joomla files the webhost said may be compromised.
To be certain, I downloaded a fresh copy of Joomla, and a fresh copy of blue stork and checked for a virus.
Yep. Sure enough.
The Error page has a virus in it.
I started with a simple scan with EMsisoft Emergency kit
Then moved to virscan.org single virus scanner that uses multiple scanners, to scan one device and shows you what they all find. They don’t all typically agree with each other, so it’s like getting a 2nd 3rd,4th etc opinion all at one time.

Here is the resulting page

I then ran to virustotal website and performed a very similar scan. and got somewhat similar results.
The results

The scary part, is Bluestork has been the default admin theme for Joomla for quite a long time.

It seems there is either a new virus definition going around that is much better defines, or is flawed, or bluestork people really have something to fix.

Either way, it might be in the best interest for Joomla to strip the bluestork theme out of the default themse.

I myself have stripped the error page to no text with in it at all.

In celebration of ten years since the release of Grand Theft Auto Vice City, Rockstar games is releasing multiple items for sale in relation to vice city. One of course being the Vice City Game app for Iphone,Ipod,Ipad android devices such as android..
Vice City is the one game that everyone loved to play back in it’s release. In fact, at one time, the gang from MTAVC.COM Modded GTA VC to be a multiplayer video game, when it originally was not. The question I have to ask is, if you take the installer multiplayer modded files, and dragged them into your mobile device, can you get on the multiplayer servers and play MTAVCMobile??

Good question, is ” Will Rockstar games make another funny game like this one? Vice City was the more Humorous of the three games in that set (GTAIII GTAVC and GTASA).
Let’s hope that by the sells numbers from this cell phone app, Rockstar games sees what element in this one, makes it so great

Well none the less. Here’s a quote on Rockstar’s website

To celebrate the 10th anniversary, there will be a series of commemorative assets released, including never-before-seen artwork and a brand new anniversary trailer highlighting some of the most iconic scenes and music from the game. In addition, a limited run of collectable promotional items will be made available for purchase through the Rockstar Warehouse, with select items also available via online giveaways.

In conjunction with the anniversary, we’re pleased to announce that we’ll be releasing an Anniversary Edition of Grand Theft Auto: Vice City for select iOS and Android devices later this fall. This upcoming version will bring the full experience to mobile devices, featuring native high-resolution graphics and several enhancements unique to the iOS and Android platforms. Stay tuned for more details in the weeks ahead including a list of compatible iOS and Android devices.

Also, since Rockstar Games never did a San Andreas Stories, can we go ahead and assume there will me no GTA San Andreas for mobile?
