I hit a site today that gave me a pop up asking for a "Yes" before I proceeded. I said "No" and then tried to close the browser the site was on, but then the pop came back up. I tried to close it two/three times but that dang pop up would come back up each time I had attempted to close the browser. Finally, I had to put the pop up right next to the "X" of my IE browser so I could click one right after the other FAST to get it to close. Grr!
Almost immediately, my system came to a grinding hault! A couple days ago I reinstalled everything on my pc but hadn't downloaded/installed Spybot & Ad-Ware yet. I went into Safe Mode, DL them and got it worked out. BUT, now I want to report the site as one with potential ad/spyware but I'm not sure how of the following...
1. How can I double check the site without visiting it and getting hosed again? Admittedly, I could have been something I picked up yesterday BUT, the system was running fun until I visited the site. I just want to be sure before I point fingers!
2. If it was this site... how can I identify exactly what crap it was that they put on my computer?
Thoughts? Suggestions??
Thanks!
