Something is very wrong with your site tonigh. Can't stay on it because of all the pop ups. My popup blocker is not blocking them on your site even though I have it set to block, It isn't happening on any other website so it has to be something here. I'll check back tommow and see if it's been fix.

Well I'm glad I'm not the only one. LOL! I guess I just won't come back until Ronni e-mails me, Because I keep having to run Ad-aware to keep taking crap off. It's not happening anyplace except here. So when you e-mail all is well I will be back. I've got about 10 popup right now after only being here a minute or so.

Okay well I have not got any popups since I deleted the shoutbox code..but it may still be on other boards..this means I will have to manually go through and take out the code of each and every board..this may take some time guys.. hang in there!

Yeh I do not get pop ups at all anymore since installing a good firewall.. But in an a half an hour session in here my firewall blocked 16 popups.. And we had a suspect attachment, we have deleted it and will be checking every couple of days... Try Microsoft service pack 2 its free and has an excellent firewall... WE have other protection in place as well, but microsoft is free it may help until the problem is solved.

I am sorry to hear you have a Trojan. Bugger!!
Through my own experience with helping other with viruses,, And i am limited !
Is you may have to go to the Main Website of your Security you use.. MAjority have an online Scanner.. If they detect anything they direct you to an area you can get help to manually delete your virus... Also I know Symantec have a live on line chat site.. Where they direct you step by step...
To verify i think you write click on the name of the virus and it will go to properties.. have a look in there.. If not I will have a look through all of my sites.. I have one that gives you all viruses and how to manually get rid of them.
Be back soon!!

They are actually 'popunders'. It says something about it in the shoutbox if you read the bit by saybot. Tell you what, it's a pain the bot!

Ya I as well. I thought my computer finally got a virus and was doing this so this thread jumped out at me. I have a good firewall and still I get a pop up with everything I click on.
Well I switched on another pop-up blocker that I have that I normally have off and now it blocks the pop ups. I must say that my other pop-up blocker blocks many others while on this site. Like hundreds during one session but most the blocked pop-ups are just blocking the saybox.

I too got the pop up/unders. I went and did several virus scans and boosted up my cookie security to the max level. It seemed to have worked, as I didn't get hit by the extra windows when I came back.

but most the blocked pop-ups are just blocking the saybox. On my home pc I can't see the saybox, nor the pop-ups - don't get any. On my work PC, I see the saybox, and no pop-ups, even when others were talking of pop-ups.. so.. going to have a chat with the IT guy at work.. seems to be working well there.. :)

I don't think this is a virus, for one I have one of the best protectors, and it would show me right away if a virus was on this page..if the problem persists..we may just have to start over on a new forum..I have been trying to contact proboards, there only reply was it could be the shoutbox...so who knows...Im trying to fix it though, just so you guys know.. I hope this does not get in the way of our forum activities..if you can not come on the forum,or choose not too, I understand..I will update everyone, as soon as I know the situation.
thanks!
