Forums - Website Topics - Pc being attacked when I load the site on occassion (firefox)

goldenpp72 on 08 November 2007

So I loaded up the site just now (and only this site) and was greeted with one of those lovely 'force you to stop browsing and try to get you to check for spyware' installation things. You know those things that screw your pc up usually. Figured i'd make a post about it.  



Note: Some games in my collection are no longer owned, but have owned.

Since you're using Firefox, these are a must have: Ad Block NoScript I also enjoy: Flash Block

Yep, happened to me today. I hate ads like that and would never buy their product. If I owned the product, I'd burn it.

Just happened to me...but AdBlock doesn't seem to work with Vista...at least not for me.

This really needs to get fixed...we've been having these problems for months now...

Bet with disolitude: Left4Dead will have a higher Metacritic rating than Project Origin, 3 months after the second game's release.  (hasn't been 3 months but it looks like I won :-p )
