Drive Cleaner pop up
I could not get rid of it to get into the board. Had to get out of internet explorer and bring it back up. How do we get rid of it Tex????? Love Oma
May I be more compassionate and loving than yeterday*and be able to spot the idiots in advance
Oma,
That's spyware, which I'm in the process of tracking down. Hopefully, I'll have it out of the code later today. In the meantime, just close your browser when that happens, and when you reopen it, it will work normally.
I suggest that you, (and everyone else), set your browser to remove all cookies, every time you close it. IOW, set it to accept cookies from the originating site, but keep them only until you close the browser. I think that's the way it should always be set, so that no one can collect data about how you use your computer.
Love,
Tex

It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.

Well it is on more than this site.
As soon as I got on the internet at work this morning, the damn windows came up for it and I had to shut down to be able to do anything. Not sure where this came from but it is a real PIA.
Love, Maggie

Hi Maggie,
As you can see, from my most recent post in the "Announcement" category, I finally found the code that was hidden in a file of the board software. It's a very ingenious arrangement, and I just hope that I can keep it out.
There's no telling what would happen if someone were to actually download their program. I would assume that they would be able to copy every keystroke that you make, once the program was installed on your computer.
Love,
Tex
