I just had my Avast block two malwares.

Yesterday I tried viewing a poetry site and some auto download started, and I closed and rebooted---nothing triggered there.

But today I had two events where I clicked on something here, and another website popped up.

I am running malwarebytes now, and it is almost done. So far it is showing one infection!

I think this time of year there are going to be many attacks by spammers!

I use Firefox... but you may want to download free the Malwarebytes and run it. We like it, and it catches alot.
