    "Who Is Cryin' Now?" security Alert

    It seems that every time I enter Hack's Chit Chat "Who Is Cryin' Now" thread, I get the Security Alert popup, as seen in the attached image.

    Does anybody else have a similar experience?

    Nope. I don't get the warning, but someone that is not from Internet.com should confirm as I'm inside a firewall.

    Interesting... nope... I haven't been getting it firewall or not. But I'm also using Firefox too... and not IE.

    Could it be an ad or ad-word issue?

    I don't get this problem. I'm using Firefox 3.6

    That usually happens when changing from https:// to http://
    But I don't see that anywhere in this case.

    The message talks about "leaving". What are you "leaving" when you try it?
    I am also using IE8.
    As to What am I leaving when I try it?
    I don't know what IE8 thinks, but generally I would be leaving "General Discussion / Chit Chat", or even this thread.

    But that does not seem to be happining now.
    When I created this thread, I had tested entering Hack's thread 15 to 20 times, and each time I got that popup. It also was occuring yesterday, although I believe it was also in other threads.

    It's stopped occuring now.
