Can you get a virus from a pop up
dotn think u can but u can from the internet files u are getting when going to site
theres spyware that changes your homepage on there :angry:
you can get a virus in a pop up if it encoded in the HTML coz i got nimda from a pop up and totaly fucked me hardrive
Surely it's best to just install some kind of pop-up blocker?
don't think they thought that far... it was probably spyware <_<
Unless you've run most/all the latest windows/IE patches, it's possible for a web page to use a script to FORCE a download-and-run on your computer even without using a pop-up. Blame Microsoft's accidental bugs for that, not their malice. :P
