the stolen.data seems to be a right bugger use malwarebytes to remove it.

this may or may not be from this site though, but I highly suspect it is.

let me know how you get on.

Thanks. I downloaded that program and did a local C: scan - no objects infected.

I'm using McAfee and Chrome.

You may have turned that off yourself Foz, its another one of them things that windows moans about with lil red squares, so you turn notify off

Not sure really, looking at the directory path I saw it was Microsoft related.

So it looks as if I've come away clean from the incident.

Downloaded Malwarebytes and did a full scan with it, nothing infected, no notifications of any nasties at all.

I scanned with Search & Destroy, Malwarebytes and McAfee, nothing found.

Same, used norton 360 and malware bytes and nthing found. I am having trouble installing the last windows update, but that may be unrelated. If anyone else expereinces the same thing, let me know.

There's currently a database error when you click on a forum members profile page. Just thought I'd let you know. thanks.

Is anyone getting any adware diverts when coming to the forum? I'm getting diverted to a casino ad page. I've stuck the pc in safe mode and scanned with malwarebytes and found a couple of threats, cleared them but when i've visited again today i'm getting it again. I'll scan again and goto a different site first to see if it is this site or my browser.
