You got spyware little buddy--- with crap like that happening it has probably manifested itself enough such that typical scans won't do. I suggest you reformat.

I recommend to everyone I know that Firefox greatly reduces the risk of getting silly viruses and bad sites. It works great and is much more user friendly than IE.

But I see it on every computer that I view this forum on...

And it only pops up on this forum...

The only time it will pop up is when I hit the back button and it flashes so quick that you can't hardly see it. It took me almost 10 min of effort just to get that screen shot of it so I could actually read what it said. And sometimes it says different things...

I am sane!

Interesting... I still can't seem to notice it--- maybe if it loaded the pages slower or something.

It was an ad for Geico. Probably served up as part of the Google ads shown at the top of the forums.

Without going into any detail about my profession let me just say that I am a bit more proficient than the average guy. The very first thing I did was check to make sure I wasn't imagining it by getting a screenshot of it and after that I immediately started tracking down possible causes. The fact that it happened on every computer that I used and only on this page pretty much ruled out the spyware theory. Either way it is definitely weird...
