Hello peeps.
I joined the forum because I have something called "safetab.org" hijacking my browser tabs when I open a new tab (occasionally- not every time and not during every session) the browser search box appears to be in a northern european language - german maybe? I have not used the search box, visited the website and am not going to
I searched google for it and this came up ....... which suggests to me that it IS a suspicious malocious programme, I don't understand why google concludes that it isn't. perhaps it's about levels of irritation and amounts of complaints about it? anyway, I want it gone!
