The other day I posted a question in the wireless forum. After I submitted it, I had about 50 Internet explorer windows open all linking to a pocket pc thoughts page. Anyone know what happened? I remember seeing a post about a week ago about someone hogging your bandwidth, may be this is what happened to them...... :?:

That's weird.
The first thing I suspect when I hear about mystery popup windows is some form of weird spyware installed on your computer. So, I would recommend downloading BOTH Spybot Search & Destroy (http://spybot.safer-networking.de/index.php?lang=en&page=about) AND Ad-Aware (http://www.lavasoft.de/software/adaware/) and run them both. Bet you have a lot on there :)
May or may not be the source of your problem, but they're both free and it's a good idea to do every week or so anyway. I always run them both because one always catches something that the other missed.

Whoa.... 8O That's certainly not something that our site caused! We have zero pop-up/pop-under code on the site. I have no clue what happened there...
