seems d........is searching for peoples passport log in here at storm2k. for the last 2 days a msn passport sign in box has popped up - on certain pages - not always the same one. seems it is addressed to .......according to the location of the box from the download. anyone else having this problem?




Edit - Problem seems to be solved. When posting a pic from someone's msn account it appears to attach the log in with it. Weird.

Yikes! Thanks artist for reporting that.

I have been scouring my system for spyware since yesterday because of that popup. Hope the mods can track it down.

Pissed me off too. Every time I'd go to a storm 2 k page 2, 3, 4 etc. that stupid thing would pop up and ask me to sign into MSN Passport. Since I have Cox @ Home, I knew this was bogus. I spent over an hour screwing with my computer on Saturday morning trying to ferret this out. Whoever is involved should be BANNED immediately.

I will remove your address from above since it seems to be solved. What did you do? Just curious how you stopped it.
