Member Since: July 2005 Posts: 23,508 Send Message	I've jsut got this yet again, and captured a screenshot, which I will be sending to GR if they bother to reply to my feedback mail. The ad that is causing the problem is..... wait for it it's for.................. Cleanator. I wonder if GR are aware it contains malware like that.

Member Since: June 2006 Posts: 2,207 Send Message	I got it yesterday and several times today - never had it (or anything like it)before when all the hoo-ha was going on! I just clicked on the cross and it went, and yesterday I did a scan shortly after seeing the first pop-up and nothing showed on Sophos. Clicked on the cross again today and it disappeared again. Is this actually the problem virus from last week, or something else? Jac

	I got this about half an hour ago and the only way I could get rid of it was to turn of the computer. Aileen xxx
