I keep getting a pop up on my computer that says I have a virus and it tries to get me to use there BS software. Scanned my computer and got nothing and it's not happening on any other sites. Happening to anyone else?

It didn't completely infect my computer just a short pop up. I have had it before where I had to redo my computer but not from on here. I dunno what it is but I know it came from here. Just thought the admins should have a heads up. I don't know if they can do anything.

Future reference if you get it, try and set your computer back to the settings of the day before. I will clear everything you did until then and usually fixes it.

Chicken,

I have been getting something very similiar.

Norton is blocking attempts to redirect when I click on random links on Tiger Droppings. I have only experiencted these redirect attempts on TD.

There have been three different blocks by Norton. All were on three different links. Today, it happened when I clicked on the "3 Questions Regardin Les Miles" Thread.

The first time Norton blocked the redirect was:
Tues, April 17, 3:04 from the same IP as above.

The second block was:
Wed, April 18, 6:37 PM. Same IP as above.

I was in the field Thurday. Didn't get on TD for very long.

Happened to me last night around 1AM. About all the information I can give on it. It is just a fake virus pop up. I think..
