I got this the other day and just now remembered I was on SFN. I right-clicked task bar to bring up task manager > selected my browser and clicked End Task to get rid of it. Perhaps it might be worth mentioning to Capn Refsmat; could be a dodgy link somewhere.

That's exactly it. Haven't managed to get it to happen again. Must be a combo of circumstances required. Thanks String

This may be a recurrence of a problem we had a year or two ago. I'll look into it and try to track it down.

Thanks Capt

Looks like it's a recurrence of a problem we had a year or two ago -- a security flaw in IPB letting someone inject code into our templates and direct people to malicious ads. I've cleaned it out, but we're still not sure how it's getting in. I've set something up to detect it if it happens again.

Nice one Cap'n.
