From this forum I’m getting what looks like a hijack from http://www.upgradienk.com
I wouldn’t recommend clicking the link. It loads instead of the forum page requesting I click a link to update java.
Looks fishey to me?

Meh, can’t he just put a hat on when moderating…?
No. Tangmere is slow roasting it, awaiting news from The East

Bit over the top with riding the red, Moggy.
Which just goes to show how little moderating Moggy has to do keep us all ‘in check!’

Sorry Snafu. I am told by he who knows that, whilst he obviously understands, you everyday chaps all find it impossible to comprehend that when I write the word ‘Moderator’ under the name ‘Moggy’ I am… er… moderating

Not moderating or it would all be in a fetching shade of red and the sig line below wouldn’t be below.

From the Webbie
Ok it seems there was a dodgy ad in the system but we don’t know how it got there as it is a part of the Google advertising system. It should have been taken out now, but let me know if it happens again
What the man says
Apologies from all of us.

Same for me yesterday as #9 – my Norton software identified it as a risk and quarantined the advert; if it helps I might be able to gather data from there!?!

Rob for me it was on the main forum page for historic and appeared to be the top banner add as once I declined the update , the broken Java icon appeared in the middle of said add..

MODERATING POST – THIS POST IS ABOUT MODERATION AND NOT MY PERSONAL VIEWS
Webbie is on it.
If anyone gets this pop-up can they please note which page they were opening at the time and let us know?
Thanks guys

You’ll note that my usual sign-off is missing. This is because the post is moderation – not me posting personally. (I may have mentioned this before)

Backdoor:Win32/Caphaw.AD perhaps? I scanned my PC this morning and found it….also something to do with Java?
By: Moggy C - 7th April 2014 at 22:48
I’d advise against accepting any pop-up update without going to the source.
