Home Office Woes

Working at Home
 I've had a home office and know the pitfalls if your family is not properly respectful of the situation.  Cuzzin Ricky is on his first go-around.  Yup.

That's a good problem to have.

I just watched this, and as it closed a pop-up appeared telling me to sign up for a virus killer to save my computer. This has happened to me on another occassion and of course the warning was the actual virus. If you don't sign up, it comes back again and again. If you do sign up, you get billed forever. You might want to check this video out, or take it down until you know if it is infected. I know the little bugger is hiding somewhere - got to go hunting.

Then again, it might just be you Bergie.

I remember when that stuff used to happen at work all the time. It was about twenty years ago.

Yeah Burgie...That's a Terpsboy hosted video. That virus crap is because your computer is already infected, it's adware and malware. It doesn't come up for any particular reason usually, but there may be 'triggers' (ie someone enters a site with video or flash, which makes the 'warning' look more legit).

No such virus stuff comes up for me on the vid, and I've watched it twice now (had to study the female).

I'd run some scans if I were you.

Casca's right. I'm hosting the video, and there is no virus coming from this quarter. UnClean! UnClaen! :)

It's not clear where the problem is. I don't have any troubles with popups or warnings but if you didn't know, terpsboy is listed as a known malware site. This from the webmaster at another board I visit a lot:

Guys... I don't usually ride herd on your style... but could you not post links to any terpsboy.com URL... as you may or may not know, this site is listed with ISPs as a serious MalWare site, and I wouldn't want our users catching Swine Flu!!!

and this from another member there:

everytime I try to log on to -----, my browser goes nuts and tries to stop me from accessing the site, warning me about malware, etc.

the mods went through and deleted every link to anything relating to terpsboy.

I'm just curious. Are those sites that provide you these warnings named DailyKos, MediaMatters, MoveOn.org, et al.? -- Skyhawker, Doug

No - the sites that warned me off re links to terpsboy are actually non-US sites.
