I apologize in advance this is not in the technical forums - but I don't get the option to CREATE a new thread in there - so wasn't sure where to post,

What is going on MFP? Since this morning, and ONLY on your page, every time I click to manuveur on your page, another screen opens trying to get me to "Update" my drivers for Windows. I get automatically rerouted to that page - which I have to then close to see the page I WANTED to be on.

Is anyone ELSE getting this problem?/

    Sounds like you got some kind of malware on your computer.

    It's not MFP, you have malware on your computer.

    I am not having this issue.

    If I click someone's name, it always takes me to a page to get the app. Otherwise, it's same as always.

    I don't think it's malware. I get this too on my home computer (first time was yesterday) and I JUST got it on my work computer as well. Mine is for updating my Flash Player.

    It isn't malware. I have run scans of my own, plus the company scans every evening. This only started today on my WORK pc. I have not used it for 3 days (took Friday off) and this morning, I get you need updates for either my browser, for my media player or for drivers.

    I have run my malware bytes and super anti-spyware on top of the company ones and I am still getting these pop ups.

    Also, if it WAS my computer - WHY is it only happening on this website? Anywhere else I go - everything is fine....

    Ok, think the problem was with FIREFOX add on called Websearch. Once I removed that, and restarted, the pop ups stopped.
