Sounds like you picked up some sort of adware or something. I don't think it will be an issue on the other side at all as it would be happening to everyone. I have never had this happen the whole time I have been here btw.

We have no viruses, malware or adware issues with this site that Im aware of. Even though it only happens when you visit this site, it sounds like your problem is local to your machine.

Download adblock plus for your browser if you don't have it already, and download malwarebytes anti-malware and do a scan. Malware usually causes popups, not viruses.

Check Hijack this--it's a free app from Trend Micro. This can help you narrow it down. Also, check Conficker Eye Chart

You can try downloading microsoft essentials. Its free and really good. Also adding malwarebytes would be good too.

spybot search and destroy and other spyware work great for finding programs that self install and hide . I had a issue a while back. ended up re formatting my entire hard drive and re installing everything. this site is clean thou. OTHERWISE I wouldnt be able to use it at work...

As easy as abc... its called "Super metal casing antivirus." Youll have to drill a hole into the metal case and into the hard drive. Get some 12awg wire and stick the positive side into the hole and into the hardrive. Now drill a hole into the side of the case where the motherboard is set on and drill a hole through that and into the processor. Now stick the negative side of the wire into that and run the posivite and negative wire into an external cd drive and put your "Super metal casing antivirus" cd into it and load it up. Now youre done. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/smile.gif.1ebc41e1811405b213edfc4622c41e27.gif
