someone mentioned a redirect. that can happen. I got a jsredirect about a week ago. sometimes you think these things are gone and find out they have written code somewhere on your machine. I got Hijack this and Trend sent me a Trojan cleaner and also a system cleaner. It was a lot of trouble but I think i''m clean.
watch out for lyrics and music sites and avatar sites. that is where i usually get Hit.

Apparently, my computer is not souped up enough. It caught 440 viruses. Geez! I don't want to go back there.

By the way, the "moving" she mentioned, was moving to a pay site, so there would be no more popups. Not moving her family to a new home
I find it discouraging that someone would so immediately believe an ulterior motive here.

I got hit just by clicking on the site, it almost brought my work PC down. It disabled my uptodate Norton.
It was tricky, but someone was able to uninstall the program and while it was doing that, the Norton kicked in.
I am now having Trojan popups which Norton is catching. I've had at least a dozen today.
I have not had one single problem like this...ever.
No thank you.

So Dagney, you're saying you don't know the source of your trojans, right?

BA- Lulz.
PS- Up to date anti-virus software good. Out of date anti-virus software bad.

Anti virus is completely unnecessary. I've not used any for the past two years and I have no viruses. I keep my cookies and security set to high within my browser, use firefox, and don't worry about it. I had a couple of viruses when I used to run anti virus. Imagine that. (something about product security I think) Did you know antivirus slows your computer down an average of 30%?

John Doe Question.....if you don't use anti-virus software then how do you know you don't have any viruses...not all viruses lock down your machine...many just sit there and send out personal data(trojans) without your knowledge, others just use peoples PC's as kinda a gate hop to keep theirs from being identified without any damage whatsoever to your PC such as writing over your hard drive etc. and no not all viruses will show up as a process when you hit control-alt-delete either..
Just curious is all...and I agree most anti-viruses are memory hogs and slow down comps really bad.
