Thumbs down FFR Spyware

So I clicked one of the FFR forum navigation links and got this today:



I am on a lab computer in school that gets re-imaged every shutdown via Deep Freeze and I'm the first one to use it this morning, so don't give me crap about "it's just your computer".

Sad for Staff here who need some profit out of the ads but better uses Adblock Plus plug-in from Firefox to avoid that stuff until they do something about it. *it also helps reduce lag in The Game thanks to some ads*

Disucss? Eh...
I have to keep deleting my own account on my computer because of this spyware error. Seems like Synthlight needs to handle this.

Get the NoScript add on for Firefox and only enable flashflashrevolution.com, and none of the external sites. Never had a single ad on this site, I'm beginning to wonder how horrible it really is lol.

@Trajik, he's talking about the 55 processes in task manager.

I installed adblock plus to prevent annoying pop-ups from appearing on this site.

AND GUESS WHAT GUYS.

I got redirected to a site that infected my laptop with a Trojan.

If you get redirected, close the process itself. Don't click on any buttons because boom, you just infected yourself. I've gotten redirected when I didn't have a sub and I'm not infected. Hell--I wasn't running any AV for about a year until I got Kaspersky 2010, which told me that I didn't even have anything worth worrying about other than some minor program vulnerabilties.
