>I almost got caught by one of those a couple days ago, on my wifes computer. I clicked "NO" on the question that was presented and got put into an endless loop....finally had to reboot to get out of it. In the future, I'll just click on the X to close the window instead.

This is exactly what I would do, and I told my daughter to never click on Yes or No but simply click on X to close the window.

I helped her to install Ad-Aware, we ran it (this is the first time I provided telephone tech support to my own child <g>), cleaned up a bunch of stuff. She has not called in about 2 hours so things maybe back to normal.

Thank you for your input.
