    Default Warning!!! Your computer contains various types of vulnerabilities....

    Warning!!! Your computer contains various types of vulnerabilities and threats. Your system requires immediate anti viruses scan! Personal Antivirus can perform fast and free virus and malicious software scan of your computer.

    I've got this twice in the past 2 days while on beyond. It closes my browser and the attached image pops up. I've ran some spyware/malware programs and they have detected nothing. I realize it is trying to get me to install something but how do I get rid of it? Anyone else having this issue?

    Yeah mines been doing it as well... it's super annoying. And ironic that it does a windows spoof page on my mac. Some sort of browser thing I'm guessing, not a spyware/adware program.

    Tries to make me download some sort of .exe.

    Yeah I'm getting the spoof page as well and when you try closing it I keeop getting more pop ups and the only way to kill it is through task manager. Been looking for a way to get rid of this and don't see anything online that seems to be working.

    It's a trojan that's installed on your computer and triggers with random web pages to make you buy fake antivirus software. We clean this shit at work all the time.

    Someone must've ran the EXE on your computer while you weren't around (I'm assuming you didn't run it). Some of these are tough to get rid of completely. There's one that we see a lot of where it's faster to reinstall .

    If this many people are suddenly getting it, could it not be Beyond (or an advertisement).

    NO ONE has access to my netbook, I've had it on my possession or in my locked car since I came down to Florida last week, there's no way anyone could have started an exe.

    I only get it when I'm on Beyond. Not to mention, I'm on a Mac, so an EXE can't even run on my computer...

    It could be... we have no control of the google ads, but Google is usually very good at making sure ads like that doesn't pop up.

    I haven't seen it pop up at all on my end at all, and I'm on here quite a bit.
