And, what would that warning/message say?

Attach a screen grab...or quote the message

Don't know how to do screen grab. I'll try and take a pix of it next time or??????????

or...just TYPE what it says. :rolleyes:

If it is an Internet Security message that contains an IP address, please include that.

TYPE!! It took me 1/2 hour to type this! I'll get all the info I can

Seems the virus has infected your typing speed!

If this is the "cache slam averted" warning, it happens randomly on all forums using this software.

So... you call for a Mod, can't type the message you get, then log out and leave it hanging?

redmt 04-07-2011 03:27 PM

I've been logging in and out all afternoon trying to get it to do it again. What else do you want me to do?

Nothing.

Unless it happens again.

You might be experiencing a false positive warning for malware that is based on the contents of one of the banners on the home page.

Since they rotate, you wouldn't see it all the time.

If you get the message again, anytime in the future, note if the message window contains a URL or an IP address of the offender.

That would be all I would need, if this was the case.

Trouble Ticket Closed. :p

Sure it isn't the Lizamoon virus?

A nasty piece of malware known as LizaMoon has hijacked links on millions of websites in the past weeks, including some normally safe iTunes and Google links.

Fortunately, LizaMoon is easy to avoid if you know what to look for.

Using rogue-AV scare tactics, LizaMoon tries to trick you into running bogus security-scan and virus-cleanup tools on your PC — but it's pure malware.

If allowed onto your PC, this particular ploy is especially troublesome because it can partially disable the Windows Security Center and change the Registry so that the full WSC can't be restarted. It also interferes with Microsoft Security Essentials, if MSE is running. (You'll find lots more LizaMoon news coverage via Google.)

redmt will start a new thread if he gets the symptom again.
