[QUOTE="WayneF, post: 354960, member: 12496"] Now and then, every couple of weeks maybe, I see something like this here... In main forum menu (where I am currently seeing a BestBuy ad for Sony 4K), and I click a forum link (don't recall which one now- was sort of a surprise) - I get a large popup, this time addressed as ad124m.adk2.net, saying "Please Install Video Performer". Has install buttons with same link addresses. No other ID as to source. I didn't click it, don't know where it goes. Address alone gets "server not found". [IMG]http://www.scantips.com/g2/spam.jpg[/IMG] This is first time I have seen this one, it varies.. It is infrequent, but it happens. [IMG]http://www.scantips.com/g2/spam2.jpg[/IMG] Too small to reproduce it here, but the Install Later link is as shown. I'm wondering if the forum can do that, others would see it if so. But am more worried it could be local malware on my own computer. I don't see anything strange in Control Panel Programs, or in Firefox addons. Is this a popup ad from the forum? [/QUOTE]
