I got a popup from AVG a few minutes ago but I don't know which website it was for. I had a few different ones open and it wasn't when I was actively surfing or clicking or anything.

I just got the same message from my Trend. It said dangerous page do not open. It was the email that comes daily from the quilting board. When I typed in quiltingboard.com I didn't have any problem. What's going on??????

You click control/alt/delete all at the same time and it bring up your task manager. This will show you what programs are running. You can then close any programs you want that are running. Most of the time if you close the program running it will take you off the internet. The best way is to just delete the email that is giving you the warning and then type the address yourself.

With windows 7 you can just right click on your taskbar and click on start task manager to open it. If you do the ctrl/alt/del with win7 a screen comes up with several different options, one of which is the task manager.

They must have gotten black listed incorrectly, probably since the newsletter sends so many emails. We had this happen to us at a previous job I had. Usually the web manager can work it out, hopefully they are able to!! I haven't seen anything yet, but I am sure it is annoying.

With Vista you can just right click under the time, down in the right hand corner of the screen, and a menu will come up with Task Manager in it.

THank you, all. I ran a complete computer scan ( not problems reported) and used task master to close this message board.
I'm glad I can open it by typing in the URL myself. If not, I'd miss you guys and all your helpful information. Your tips and tutes are teaching me so much in this wonderful world of quilting. Your quilts inspire me!! THANK YOU!
