Good to know...
This happened maybe 2 months ago. I can't remember the site. I had never had it happen to me before and I didn't think anything of it. When I closed my browser, my desktop was blue and in big huge red letters said I have a virus on my computer. My heart SUNK. As I had never had one before. I called a friend of ours that works on computers and he walked me through reformatting and all that stuff. Just be careful everyone and HEED all virus warnings you get. Even if you think its not important. You CAN get them from sites you frequent all the time.
