    Popups and downloads

    Something on this site just downloaded 8 short cuts on to my desktop, and installed custom links to my Explorer page. Great. Thanks. Now I get to spend the day trying to figure out how to get rid of this cr*p.

    Why are you using IE in the first place?

        Could you be more specific?

        The forums or the main page?

        Was this from a forum attachment?

        I can assure you that we are not randomly dowloading software to you and executing it without your permission. If you can let us know what actions you took, it will help us find out what's going on.
