More spyware popups? Advanced Cleaner?
Anyone else getting these browser pop ups? It's just like the last time it happened. I was in the tech forum and I closed my browser and imediantly got the small box pop up on the lower right hand corner of the screen that looks like a windows warning but it said my computer was infected and to download Advanced Cleaner to fix it. I'm doing a spyware scan now but it looks a lot like the last time this happened.

No I don't have spyware on my computer. It's only happened once and looked just like the spyware attack we had a few months ago. That's why I brought it up. Apparently it was a one time deal.
