While surfing LED Forums I got a Virus warning that my computer was infected. Being familiar with spyware proliferating on the web and having once been hit with a trojan in an email, I closed the box and another with an official looking Microsotf (Window) opens with a dire warning to click to remove deadly virus. I closed said window and 5-6 more popups warned of virus needing to be removed.
After all windows were closed, thankfully, I googled "spyware Contravirus" as recommend by security buffs and spychecker. Many sites including CNET and PC Magzine offered free Contravirus Spyware removal.
Anyone else see this on CPF? I saw Sasha's concern in "Shocked" and I am shocked that this is happening to our membership. I would be glad to support via paid membership and some silver bullets for vampirii as this is too personal.
