Anyone Else?

Yeah, I got it 2 or 3 times the other day in Firefox.

It's not really a pop up per se... It does pop up, but it looks like an error message or something. It tells you you are infected and asks you to press "OK" (the only choice besides the X at the top) to install their program to get rid of it. I'll try to get a screen shot if it happens again. And it did happen even after I ran a spyware scan with Spybot S&D. So far it hasn't done much but be annoying.

Its got all the characteristics of spyware, as I said Ive never had it , its sounds similar to the WINFIX pop up that used come up when you visited certain websites but most AV have patched that now, It seems there are only a select few on here who get it so it must be down to your web browser security settings, why don't you start a poll on CF to see how many members have actually had it.

Here's a screenshot of my error. As I said, I scanned for spyware and it wasn't resolved. Do you guys know of any other better free spyware program that Spybot S&D?
