The Geek squad at Best Buy thought I was joking in August when I said I was on a quilting ad and got a porn site then a malware virus but they did trace it to the ad. Rotten thing was very expensive to fix so I will not follow them again.

I have McAfee too and it happens almost every second page on here and other websites. Just close it, for whatever reason it doesn't like the pop up ads or blinking ads. There's nothing wrong with the website, it's just a precaution

This has been happening to me for several days now. When it pops up - I go back one page then go forward one page and it's gone. Wondered if I should worry about this - happens about 2-3 times each morning, as I'm looking at all the posts. Wish I was more computer literate and hope there is nothing wrong. It's a black line at the top of the page that says "Warning....." and it's from MacAfee.
