sounds familiar
chillin', leaning back with feet on desk, trying to open a program, keeps closing, thinking man something is wrong now. Find out it's only my foot pressing the Esc key.

I started getting pop up messages on my screen saying that I was not protected against worms. Message said call a particular UK number for £1:50 per minute for advice.

So then I realized I had allowed a couple of cookies so as to gain access to the UK Daily Telegraph newspaper. Wiped them and pop up messages have gone. At the moment I presume the cookies were the problem.

Guess I could check by allowing them again. Anyone knowledgeable know the score on this?
