Prince and Pop Ups

What a mess! i only reported what i saw and now accqusations! i went to the Prince, Music and More discussion forum to find news about Prince's music. What i found was alot "More" than that. Say what you like but since i share my computer maybe someone else had visited one of these sex sites while i was not here. It still does not explain why i received a "pop up" of one these sites when i tried to access this Prince forum. As you might notice on one of the replies, this has happened to someone else...so it isn't just me. Believe me, my interest is in Prince and his music not some sleazy sex site. no no no!

Can you describe your problem a little more clearly?

you have spyware on your computer
it is simple.
it has nothing to do with prince.org, they come up randomly, when you open a browser or anytime at all.
maybe YOU don't visit sex sites but whoever you share with must or else this wouldn't be on your computer.

get ad-aware and it will remove all offending spyware.

I have NEVER seen a pop-up on this website, except those directly related to the org, like the orgnotes, peek in chat, and profiles...

So, I for one, have not experienced this here.

I lost my entire first album after my computer got a virus. They no joke huh!

It took guts to come back and set the record straight.

God bless
