Pages redirecting to errorsafe and system doctor?

[Olivia]

I hope this isn't just me but from both my home computer and work computer, on some pages in the forum that I click on, I get redirected to an error safe page telling me to download some crap spy ware or whatever it is.  I got it last night from home but am now at work and getting it here too.

Anyone else?

[turtleande]

I was looking at someone's profile and clicked on the link to the topic that they had commented in and approx. 300 windows attempted to open up.  :-o
I'm on IE at work and haven't tried it at home yet.

[Olivia]

It's doing my head in!  It redirects me to system doctor too and keeps asking if I want to download.   

[xX_foryou_xx]

iv been having it contantly! i did a virus scan and i was clean... glad its not my computer!

[christine k]

I got the same shit.  Work and home also.  It's why I started using Opera browser - but I still like IE better.

Errorscan is malware.  They've probably attached to an ad and that's why we are getting it.

Me too. Even if I say yes and download, I can't open it. Therefore, I can't get to any of the new articles. It wasn't doing that this morning.

O.k., I was using a Yahoo browser. Don't know what it really is. I closed that and went to IE and got in fine.

[Olivia]

I'm using IE and it just does it every now and then for maybe 10 mins at a time,

I've found that closing the browser is the easiest thing.  Either that or hitting the back button a few times really quickly.

On a different note, has anyone typed their load and gone to use a smiley thing, only to have it wipe your entire message??  now THAT annoys me. 

[Olivia]

Yes I hate when it wipes the whole message.

If you turn spell check off, it doesn't do it for some reason.

[eggson]

There's spell check?  Ah yes... what a sneaky little  that was.  I always wondered why some words came up yellow.

You don't have to keep spell check off.  J said to turn it off and then on and the problem will vanish.

J, both mine and Olivia's links say 'cachebuster'. 

Not sure what that is but ran a search and maybe this will help you?

ARGH IT'S DOING MY HEAD IN.

[eggson]

Here's the bastard:

[Tarren]

I was getting that too, I use Mozilla.

It was really pissing me off.

I did a full scan of my PC and then did a search for Winantivirus and Errorsafe and deleted any files with those names.

It hasn't happened since, fingers crossed.

I just did a search and found two notebook files with those words in it.  Deleted them so fingers crossed!  Thanks Tarren

[Olivia]

Nope still doing it -

J it seems to be downloading files into my computer or something because when I do a search and delete them, they have magically reappeared next time I do a search

When I open the notebook file this comes up

And now it does it too when I goto the MDS homepage, not just the forum which is where it only happened before.  It is happening alot more frequently too.

It's driving me mad as well, haven't been able to use MDS for days now because of this pop-up, my usual spyware searching thingy and virus checker are finding nothing but I'm losing patience.
