Hi all it is thew JS/cisp trojan, low rick but a pain in the A$$ i have even had it pop up in thge meta gallery, makes me wonder if our recent spammer has had a hand in this, Slug and co should have it sorted pretty soon.

Are these unwanted pop ups and viruses happening as a result of all the SPAM and wieredos posting their insults and drivvel? Are they doing it?
Can we block these people?

I recommend that everyone download and use Firefox at
http://www.spreadfirefox.com -- you'll never see another popup again, along with many other advantages.
Just my $.02 of course

dittoing twalker, I have firefox and although it's not perfect, I have had no popups. It's certainly much better than IE!
I had the porn and some...

Last week suddenly a pornsite popped up and with it came a Trojen which was trying to worm itself through my system. I was able to have fixed, but to say the least, it sucked.

stop using IE if you are. simple solution is to use mozilla firefox
