1 millionth visitor?

When I went to reply to a post something popped up on this site that congratulated me for being the 1,000,000 visitor. It showed a bunch of balloons. Was that coming from this site or am I infected with spyware again?

I knew it couldn't be real but I never seen any spyware like that before. Spyware should be illegal!

I thought it was weird too because it wasn't a pop-up, it was just graphics on the screen. There was no X to get rid of it.

I got the same message also a couple days ago. You're right, spyware should be illegal.

Sort out your pc's and you won't get any - I never get any pop-ups on this site.

Try Mozilla or just install Google toolbar and forget pop-ups for good.

And for searching and removing quite a lot of spyware, try Ad Aware, it's free for personal use and we strongly recommend it. Be sure to download the latest updates as well.
