Thank you, I was hoping someone would point that out. The idea that one
would have to click on an ad to get infested is erroneous. If someone
(not running as admin) gets one of those "your computer is infested and
we can help you" messages, you can maximize the window using task
manager and see the actual IP address of the malware server in the
address bar. (hint - it won't be foxnews).
