In the last day I found that I got infected with some bug on this site . Does anyone else have something like this?
Certain key words are hot and will link to popup ads when clic'd on.

WTF is this????(pardon my french.)

You have spyware on your machine. It's not related to this site. I would expect that you'll see the same effect on many sites (especially forum sites).

Download and run the Microsoft anti spyware software, then AdAware from www.Lavasoft.com and finally SpyBot Search and Destroy from www.safer-networking.org

You pretty much need to run all three to make sure you're clean.

I post at several sites and this is the only one that ever, and it does it semi regularly, wont post after I hit "submit" and my pc locks up.

Thats been going on here for me for several weeks,

scan your computers and quit using IE.. i have had no problems with this or any other board.

yeah, I think there is something, I got hijacked

It is most likely the latest worm, zorbot or something like it. I got hit by the Sasser worm when it came out, hit me while I was on the forum and I thought the same thing. These worms work by finding an open port (Microsoft security flaw) and back dooring your computer.

Whoa, glad to hear this, cuz that's been happening to me for a few weeks too, unless it's a really short post.

Usually, I'll open another window and keep reading while waiting for the other page to finally submit the post, which usually will happen eventually.

Yea, I go and put some more tile in my new bathroom or something.

The last time it never posted, but it hasnt been happening lately.

The last time I got a virus, I called compaq, we spend several hours going through various anti spyware programs, none of them took care of it. Finally I told the guy goodbye and just did a system restore on my PC. That always takes care of it. Im more careful about what sites I visit now, but some of the links from some of these posts can be suspect.

heres an idea.....buy an Apple and be done with all of the mumbo jumbo.

Hey MedMech, got that ol' time religion, huh?

Preach to the unwashed heathen masses, bruddah-man!

You know how OCD can be .
