Anyone seen this popup? You know, the one that claims your system is infected with SubSeven or any number of other virii and then takes you to a page where you can download a rather poor antivirus software package..

Makes me wonder about the legality of this.. Anyhoo, a couple of the local computer stores have been dealing with service returns because apparently this package does NOT protect against the virii it claims it does Slipgate - Tongue So there are a number of rather angry semi-luddites out there.. It'd almost be amusing if it didn't pop up so @#$%ing often on my box.. *adds filter to hostsfile*
