this really chapped me off!

okay, here i am at my computer, i open up my Internet Explorer and some Pop-Up ad and a notepad documents comes on the screen and my CD-ROM drive magically opens up on its own. the notepad doc stated exactly:

If your NOTEPAD launched and is displaying this message...

Then "Spyware" programmers can control applications on YOUR computer and it is URGENT that you download SPY WIPER immediately. Do not allow spyware programs to damage your insecure computer!!

(See other window)

has this or anything like this happened to anyone else? believe me, this sort of spyware/ trojan/ hacker bull has happened a lot to me and this is the last straw! if ANYONE has any idea how to stop this stuff i'd like to know!

it'd be much appreciated!

jesus, not even your own personal computers are safe anymore!

always seem to be govern'd by this love we have
or useless, twisting, our new technology. Oh, now there is no sound - for we all live underground. Now there is no sound.
