So I was doing some stuff on line and had a little pop up box pop up that said

 

widows defender alert: zeus virus detected on your computer.  Please do not shut down or reset your computer.  the following data will be compromised if you do so

passwords

browser history

credit card information

local hard disc

 

the virus is well known and mostly distributed through porn sites.  commonly used to steal personal and financial information from the infected device.  Please call microsoft to rectify the issue and get your pc unlocked.  toll free helpline at 844-244-7965

 

 

 

so is this a scam or is my puter infected?  I was not even viewing any porn when this box popped up but when I clicked it off there was a porn site open.When I checked my puter it said I had windows defender turned off - I am running microsoft security essentials.   Help !

Yeah its a scam.  I see that sometimes, and I just hit control alt delete, shut down my browser application, and start again.

 

Fwiw, it seems to happen a lot on the huddle.  

Yeah I get some strange redirects on the huddle sometimes but have never seen a pop up like this one before.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      Really? You don't see why a team can't draft a QB in the 1st round while then starting their former #1 overall pick over them while on the last year of their deal? It puts the team in a TERRIBLE place no matter how the season goes.  If Bryce sucks, you have to answer questions as to why he was still on the team to begin with, let alone starting over the rookie.  If he's good, then you run into the situation the Vikings were in last offseason with sticking with the rookie contract or the the guy who just performed instead of said young QB. It's one thing when teams keep a vet around as a bridge QB, it's something entirely different when that QB is still only in their mid 20's and was taken #1 overall by that team.   That just doesn't happen and not sure it ever has in NFL history before.

      What is the alternative? - BY, will not play for less then his perceived contract (just like Cam Newton did). So you pay him top of market as befitting a 1st round, Heisman winning, playing birthing QB would get. Or you cut him. - Then we are forced to either sign a stop gap QB / previously failed QB and try to fix him or you spend a 1st round pick and draft a guy, basically resetting the team.  The reality is that we all want a top 5 QB. The problem is there are only 5 of those guys in the world and drafting, even #1 overall doesn't guarantee that.  The other problem is the NFL market. Young QB get paid. Even an average, young QB gets top of market deals. I know a lot of people here think we could sign him to an 'average QB contract' but thats not reality. Didnt happen with Cam wont happen with BY.  So we could let this season flush out and he is again a middling QB. But then we cut and restart or accept it is what it is (including compensation) and build a team around what we have.  My money is on the latter.

      That doesn't void his contract
