When I click on to this forum, within a few minutes I get a phishing notice that says my computer might have a virus and to "click here". This happens on no other sites. I clear the cache and cookies. All three of my malware apps say that everything is fine. Anyone know what I can do?

A screenshot would help me track down the true source. Obviously nothing like this should ever be coming from TFO and I apologize in advance if it is somehow being sent from our server.

The screen locks up and I have to go to previous. When my wife gets home, I'll take a photo with her phone. It's done it twice now as I am typing.

I keep getting ads for "Asian Brides" and dating sites. Is that related?

Its not so cool when my wife looks over to see who I'm "chatting" with on the tortoise thingy...
