normally I would agree with you, but this only happened when I visited buzzbeater. I subsequently went to other sites and it didn't happen.

I will put a query with the BB-team, though a quick google check shows that this particular site is definitely malware. I recommend you check your system nonetheless.

we also refuse to be responsible for the consequences.


I agree 100%. if malware is coming from another source, intended or not, it is not BB's problem, it is mine. I just wanted to alert BB that I saw this in the off chance that it was an unsanctioned part of an advertiser's code.

Thanks for everyone's help on this. I will now go scrub my computer clean.

It is probably pure coincidence that this happens when BB is open. I am also completely sure it is 100% unrelated to BB, because otherwise many other players should have the same problem, and this is clearly not the case !
I am pretty sure your system is infected with spyware/adware. Try to get a good spyware remover and run it, then you'll immediately see if anything comes up on the screen and you'll know for sure if it is spyware/adware or not.
I think that's a good first step to take in figuring out what the reason for this problem is, don't you think.

grtz,
