seedboo gave me virus ??!!

[GMax]

was at the boo the other day and I accidentally clicked on of the ads.. a popup window came up that said page cannot be displayed..

now everytime I get on the internet, the same popup comes out of nowhere and whether I close it or minimize it, it closes all the tabs I have open too..

I am getting about 5min of internet use at a time.. HELP !!!!

Uh, seedboo DOES NOT HAVE any ads...

So obviously you got the virus BEFORE you visited Seedboutique, possibly from some other site.

Be very careful when visiting other marijuana sites. They might have viruses to track you.

And what software are you using to protect yourself?

If none, then it's time to get some.

You might also want to read this thread about deactivating Java, as that is how many ppl get viruses from websites.

I didn't mean it was caused by the boo, it just started happening when I was there... I see there is no ads.. my head was turned when I clicked, but the boo was all I had open...

I will try disabling java and see if it helps... tracking viruses, now you got me paranoid.. thanks skip

disabling java didn't help... but I talked to my girl and she was having problems the other day before me so it didn't originate from BOO it just happened to me for the first time while I was there


geek squad wants $200 for virus work !!! I can just buy a new laptop

200 for virus work? that's ridiculous, you can always format the laptop if you haven't tried free virus software at the very least..

some of the worst viruses are in sites that come up when you search for strains, i learned that lesson to look before i click when caned surfing..

Well at least it will help prevent getting more viruses.

For around $30 you can get a good antivirus that will clear up your problem.

I recommend Zone Alarm. There are some free products out there but they can be even more of a problem than you have now...
