is this spam pop-up problem for any other PA users?
has PA been hijacked, or is it filthy advertisement?
It closes the window, and on school's computer, i think there came Trojan
 
(it's not on the forum, but when first entering PA after new window)

This thing previously hijacked one of the pro radio station sites & left some kind of spyware behind on my PC. It was, however, easily detected and removed by Spybot. Smile

Still linked with the problem I had last week (and keeps happening)
 
 
I think mostly linked to the database part of the site.

I have emailed Max about this issue.
Any chance someone can grab a view of what is occurring?
Use PrtScr or a screen capture program.

It is very difficult to remove this Spyware. I have tried everything. The most annoying thing is that it not only throws me out of PA but right off the browser as well. The only time I get this happening is when I enter PA. I wonder if the server is infected??
 
Is anyone else still getting this v annoying Spyware?? Is anything being done to rid it's presence from PA?? Confused

I'm "glad" this is not just happening to me, now? 
 
M@X this only happens with the PA so it is not a problem of our computer

Given the popularity of ZoneAlarm, could you give some details of how you did that Aussie?
