I noticed there was one of those "YOU HAVE WON THE HOURLY PRIZE" windows in the sponsors area a second ago. The next click showed a "CUSTOMIZE YOUR ZWINKY" advertisment. Nothing in there from the likes of Cuban Lou's ect.

Did someone hack the site? Anyone else notice this? ???
 
Sounds like you have spyware installed on your computer.

Yep...

John, http://www.safer-networking.org/en/index.html get it, use it, learn to love it!

Or don't run Windows ;)

Normally I'd pffffffffffftttt you Andrew, but I know better.

A new Trojan for Apple's OS X computers has appeared. While neither a virus nor the first appearance of malicious code on Mac OS X, the incident is receiving major attention from the Apple community. Additionally, the Trojan has been neither widespread as a worm nor particularly effective, but should be an eye-opener to Apple users that no modern computer system is safe from the potential for viruses, worms and malicious code.

An external link to the malicious code was provided in the popular Mac Rumors message forum. The Trojan was first publicly disassembled and documented by Andrew Welsh, who has given it the name OSX/Oomp-A.

http://www.securityfocus.com/brief/142 I remember when I received that Bulletin and said to myself "Hey I know that guy!" lol :thumbs:

Has there been anymore since then? Probably not or I would have heard something about it by now.

*edit* to provide the link to Moki's forum where he discusses the Oomp-A

Interesting stuff!

Maybe you should just customize your ZWINKY. That might take care of the problem. :D

Thanks Shawn! Can't beat that for the price. Did a fantastic job of cleaning up my computer. I ran two scans with Norton Antiviru$ and it didn't pick up a thing. :angry:

Looks like Norton is going to get the Add/Remove Programs treatment...............That was wasted money.


Thanks again brother!

Don't need to. I have the wife convinced four inches is in fact eight. ;)
