There's a new popup that IE6 can't stop it seems, and it looks like it's
something M$ made. M$ security icons, colors, looks like it came from the
update page. Pops up without any address bar.
reason I mention this, I made the mistake of hitting the cancel button at the
bottom of the page instead of the close button at the top right.
Next thing I knew I had a bigger popup telling me it was now sending me xxxx
that was going to scan my hard drive for intruders.
I'll catch it next time and send all the info I can to M$ and tell them they
have a troll using their logos.
But thought I might post here case others see it and this can be a warning for
newbies, and a headsup to capture the info on the page for those that can do
it.
And newbies.. Don't smack links on pages you want to close. In this case I was
lucky. it only opened another link telling me my next hit would send xxx scan
on my drive.
It could have taken that cancel I pressed to send a scan to my drive.
It still may have, but I won't know till I scan my drive.
ie6 and XP pro sp3 do a good job of blocking popup's, but it doesn't block them
all.
