Ok, i used IE. I clicked the banner on the right side of cybertron.ca. And then boom! A warning popped up from my Anti-Virus program. I tried to clear the virus, but it says it cannot be remove. And then my Adobe Reader popped up by itself. That was what happened to me last time when I got infected from visiting Automaton's website. Just now, I entered the website, it was fine...but then my computer is infected by virus again It isn't the first time, 3 times already from Automaton. I am sure it isn't porn, because I do not watch porn with my computer..

I got a computer just to watch porn.


Never use Internet Explorer unless you don't have a choice. Also, what virus program are you using?

[Supernova]

Using Win 7 / Firefox / AVG with no issues - but the fact that some are having problems and some aren't is troubling...

IE is a bad browser to use for anything. I recommend you get Chrome or FireFox.

And what virus program are you using?

Yah, I got infected from using IE...I don't really use other internet browser...I guess I should use something else. The virus program I used is provided by my internet provider. The name of the program is called "Shaw Secure".
