with the strange pop ups when I come to this Forum? For the last few days I get a new browser called Undercover the
net and just now I got a notice saying that I won some sort of prize for visiting this forum?

It's had to be BS it said I won a 16G Ipad gen3, they wanted for me to fill out all sorts of things. I closed out and
am now wondering WTF is going on.

This only happens when I come o this forum or to club Polk for that matter. I get no other strange web browsers
from any other place. Hmmmmmmmm


Done a Virus check and nothing, Running Avast and Norton 360 and nothing shows up, Pc runs fine also.

    Thanks mrbluelight I D/L Malwarebytes and It found 4 threats. I removed them and did a restart and then
    did a rescan with nothing found.

    When I logged into Club Polk I was not/did not see another sight pop up.

    Thanks again Jon
