Site Good. Virus Bad.
« on: April 22, 2004, 12:33:59 AM »
hello

I like the site, but the thing is...everytime i come here, i get bombarded with popups.
now i know you have to pay the bills but.....

when i come to your site, my virus detector find the Tojan Virus in one of your popups as well.
that is not good.

any comments?

The compulsary comment here is to suggest Firefox. It won't fix the site but it'll fix your pop-up problems

Run something like Spybot or Adaware, too- if you're using Internet Explorer, most of your popups are actually being caused by spyware rather than PGC itself.

You need Firefox for sure!
