But shouldn’t it be .png?

Reduced to an extension … 😀 … you mean?

and you are the only person affected

Well, Bruce has reported being affected once and now Creaking Door too so we’re three, at least. C D and I did the same thing, shut down the browser/computer without delay. I believe there are many more who have been affected but people simply don’t care enough to report it.

I run Windows XP and IE8 with Norton Antivirus (and understood hardly any of the technical content of this thread)!

Almost the same software environment as on my system (I run Norton Internet Security) and I too am getting close to not understanding. I have no idea how websites and advertising works but:

Bruce stated that the moderators made an investigation into his “issue” but found nothing to indicate that Key was to blame. Did you investigate the advertisers and other crapware who have links into your site? I mean, it happened for me and apparently for the other two as well, when one of those “external contributors” refreshed the page.
