why does this board want to run a VB script on my machine?

Hi

it didn't before, so why start doing it?
I don't even like to have to have activeX stuff on...

Maybe a new type of adds? I'm using Naviscope to suppres adds. Usually I just see an evenly colored box instead of the adds, but lately it won't stop the adds at the top of each page....

dunno - it flashed by on my radar a while back too - but it seems to be gone now.

I must have missed it, will keep an eye out.

are you sure its a vb script and not just the ads your seeing come up as an intrusion?

It's back again and the source contains the following

document.write('<SCRIPT LANGUAGE=VBScript\> \n');

It's part of the OAS AD 'flash-seminar' ad stuff from realmedia.

Man, that ad is annoying. Causes problems when it's on screen and you try to post a message, too.

so I wasn't mistaken
I thought something was "skewy"

some pages just don't want to load when a certain ad is at the top.

mind you, I also have a problem on the cable connection. its speed is waaay below what it should be.

but still, some pages don't load.
period.

I've seen it a few times too, but only on certain machines. i have the same problem on Mcafee's page, and it keeps me from updating DAT files from certain machines ::mutter:: any ideas?
