Was on my Anniversary and didn't get to watch the Fedor vs Rogers fight broadcast Saturday night (she wouldn't let me sneak off). Did a quick search and pulled in first place this link: http://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&ct=res&cd=1&ved=0CAcQFjAA&url=http%3A%2F%2Fuocunescochair.net%2F%3Ft%3Dfedor-vs-rogers-replay&ei=3Cj3Sqi5I4Te8QahsO3zCQ&usg=AFQjCNFvCJwnkln__-d9MlRcEH4CjzXBPg&sig2=WmIMz0hcFZ68fqkzhp3rQA First thing to pop up was a page small pop-up from "The page at http://guardsystem-scanner.net says" with a "Warning! Your PC is at risk". Now, the plot thickens. I just deleted my McAfee Antivirus and installed "Panda's Cloud Antivirus"(http://www.cloudantivirus.com/en/). I know McAfee wouldn't have caught this but it would have through access scanner if anything would have been installed. But my understanding of Panda's Cloud was to "catch" such bad scripts when it was sent to me "through" the cloud. They typical "Windwos Security Alert cam "scanning my computer". It then prompted me to down load "setup_build6_301.exe from guradsystem-scanner.net. There you go if your interested...I'm going back to watch the fights! -- been great, thanks a.k.a System _______________________________________________ Fun and Misc security discussion for OT posts. https://linuxbox.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/funsec Note: funsec is a public and open mailing list.
