It has happened with me and a few others recently. Are you using Chrome as your browser?

Could you link me to the pages you have seen it on? I have only seen it on one page.

We have checked it out and it looks like a browser issue, but I wouldn't follow the link as you said. As said post the links and we will take a look at them.

I have broken your link as a precaution, so others are not tempted to follow it.

Yes it's mickey's sig/banner, the site the banner originated from was hacked and had the usual malware uploaded to it. It is therefore on the list of sites that may be harmful to your computer, until it is cleaned up.

I will remove Mickey's sig for now and ask him to pick another, and point him here as an explanation.

Thanks for the report.
