There is a antivirus software popup when you get to your photos at ImageShack. Tries to get you to download the pack exe... Secruity Alert is the software. DO NOT download it as it is malware. It will give you a false scan saying you have all kinds of viri and Trojans on your computer. You cannot uninstall it once installed. The only way to get rid of it is by System Restore to an earlier date.

And no I'm not making this up.... It was installed it on it's own or by my mistake. It happened so fast I couldn't stop it. I've seen this before with another piece of antivirus software from another antivirus software maker. And they are usually foreign outfits to get you to buy very expensive computer protection you don't want.


I had not this problem because i am running my IEexplorer with ,,popup bloked'' all the time - the best way to prevent situation like these - and strange because seems the ImageShack is a serious site

Best regards!
P.S. How do you find the mod?

My popup blocker is on but it still popped up. Shouldn't have but did. I only posted as a warning for everyone to be very careful.

I've got the mod downloaded to try it out.... tho not installed yet. Will run it asap.

It bypassed my pop-up blocker, too. Don't click on anything! Instead, Ctrl+Alt+Del right away and hope that you can shut it down with the Task List. As GT182 said, once installed it is very nasty.

By the way, this is in IE 8, WinXP.
