Black Owl Posted August 1, 2012 #5 Posted August 1, 2012 Nope. You must be on someone's "special" list....
SilvrT Posted August 1, 2012 #7 Posted August 1, 2012 the contest is over ... that's why nobody else is getting the popup! (I won)
09RSTD Posted August 1, 2012 #8 Posted August 1, 2012 I have never had it happen to me and I log onto the site from multiple locations and computers. Very Interesting.
Flyinfool Posted August 1, 2012 #9 Posted August 1, 2012 Sounds like you better do a good male ware check on your computer.
oldgoat Posted August 1, 2012 Author #10 Posted August 1, 2012 i think i better run a good scan. it just did it again offering leather gear and gloves? nice looking gear i must say but it,s from the UK?
star4772 Posted August 1, 2012 #11 Posted August 1, 2012 Nope nothing here either your just lucky. HEHE
oldgoat Posted August 1, 2012 Author #12 Posted August 1, 2012 what ever it is it,s over ridding my pop up blocker. think i will do a full scan. so it does not affect this site
Eck Posted August 1, 2012 #13 Posted August 1, 2012 Nope....have not seen one ...and hope I dont.. I get enough spam junk email as it is..
etcswjoe Posted August 1, 2012 #14 Posted August 1, 2012 You have a Trojan, it will probably start on other sites you visit too.
ragtop69gs Posted August 2, 2012 #16 Posted August 2, 2012 The only popup I get keeps telling me I need MORE SAFETY CHROME !!

First_N_Last Posted August 2, 2012 #25 Posted August 2, 2012 Most malware now is "Script" based... My only sure safety so far is to use FireFox with the add-on called "NoScript". It takes a bit to setup & use, but after that it thwarts all the "Script" attempts from bad sites.
