I was in the mpguino blog post. Clicked open in new tab on More on HybridFest @ Pop Mech7.25 and did the same for the ford story. The ford story did not open in the new tab and I got the antivirus 2009 popup.
It's the first time I ever got something like that. It's a funny coincidence it happened on em...

I also got it yesterday, but, like a dumbass I didn't remember or write down the particulars on when it happened. I simply closed the window and opened a new one.

Get Firefox and the NoScript extension. NoScript prevents undesirable Javascript activity like popups. Takes a little time to figure out how it (and Javascript) work, but it's worth it. Browsing is much more secure.

NoScript is indeed a good extension, but if this is on EM we need to get rid of it...I'll send a note to darin and the server guy.

I haven't noticed this myself, but I've been away, as Ben mentioned.
I talked to the server admin today. His opinion is that it's likely ad-related, not forum related.
Anybody seen the problem today (Saturday)?
