I just had a popup window close me out from OS and then basicly go into one of those your computer may not be protected crap. I was reading the thread in this section about someones sig not showing up. Seemed like one of those things you guys like to know about and fix quickly.

Re: Random popup
As I mentioned in the "embedded malware??" thread, the same thing happened to me two nights in a row about a week ago. I suggested that perhaps there was a malicious script in one of the ads on the site since I was only in the OS Neighborhood main page when one of them happened so it couldn't have been from a script in someones signature. I use IE8.Steelers : IX, X, XIII, XIV, XL, XLIII

Re: Random popup
I posted this in the embedded Malware thread.
I just got hijacked again. The program is XP-AntiSpyware 2010 and it automatically installs on your system.
I was in the non-sports gaming>Heavy Rain forum and Windows Security Center popped up for no reason.
Then this started running.
Malwarebytes cleared it, but I had to change the file extension to .com as it disables all antimalware exe files. I can show you the log files of Malwarebytes if needed.Comment
