[QUOTE="Stubbs, post: 452311, member: 45636"] My son wanted a Harry Potter mod for Minecraft, so I downloaded it for him.....had a couple of popups from the site, which looked like the typical spyware / malware "Your PC performance is comprised.....click on this box to fix the issue....." I closed out the windows without clicking any of the links, but I started getting the Malicious Website Blocked popups a short time later. What's odd is that they only happen when wIndows starts after a reboot. 6-10 popup, then they stop. As soon as I reboot, they come back within 10 seconds of Windows restarting. Nothing shows up on the scans, but there's got to be something going on.... [/QUOTE]
