Yes. I would delete them.
Delete or quarantine. Whatever your option is.
But that did not fix it on my end. I needed Hoot's link. Although it's always a good idea to run adaware and malware bytes now and then. What one doesn't find the other usually does.
It didn't fix it here either, so I too will have to use Hoot's link. I really don't understand it all, but if I follow along step by step I should be OK. I am also getting a warning from Cisco, my WIFI network every time I click into a post on the forum and also on another forum I belong to. I just click out of it and continue, but eventually I have to address that. I had that once before but I can't remember how I got rid of it.
Computers are such fun.
I was referring to the screenshot you posted of the window asking for a username and password.What image? The one in Carol's post that I can't see?
I don't know my router's # offhand.
On the positive side, I'm in this thread and it did not appear this time.
Here is the warning I get. I just got it when I clicked on "quote" to reply to a post. It's not just here that I get it, but also on most other sites. I think it has something to do with the issue we are discussing in this thread. Notice that it also has the items in red underlined, the same as the ones I am getting in the posts here. It comes up with the Cisco logo which is my router. I had this warning before but I can't remember how I got rid of it. I am waiting to see if Hoot's link was any help to Pacanis, and also the time to go through the steps.

I read through a few threads, clicked on this one and saw this!
Then after I had saved it and went to post about it I got it again when the computer opened the advanced reply window.
What the heck is going on here lately?
Hoot, are you on this? Nobody else appears to be. Along with the numerous times (sometimes) that it takes to upload a picture here
I wonder if it has something to do with me only seeing a black X on Carol's last post where a picture should be? I can't move around in this thread at all without getting that password window.
...Folks, after carefully reading this thread I think the issue is malware or tracking cookies on personal computers - plain and simple. Please be careful about where you surf and what you click on. Make sure your are running good, undated antivirus protection and have a secure firewall. Be careful!
