So it happened to me for the 4th time... A pop window pops up telling me my pc is inficted with virus and it promts me to download something from 3rd party website which infact is a virus. I tho maybe something was wrong with my laptop... Then it happened on my brand new pc while surfing huddle and now it happened on my pc at work.

Does this happen to anyone else?

I mean how long since you have been going on the internet? Since its inception?

Never Download something you didnt initially want to download in the first place on the interwebz.

First rule of The Interwebz

Oh, did not download it... Huddle is the only website I go to on my work pc. Everything else is blocked 0_0

It didn't come from the huddle, unless you clicked a link someone else posted. I forget the exact name of that virus, but if you ever get a prompt with a yes and no question box, do NOT click no. CLick the red x at the top right of the browser. If it pops up again, you are likely already infected. Another option is just hard power off the laptop and not click anything. That virus cannot really be removed, so good luck. That thing could have been on there days ago, laid dormant, then popped up a few days later. One way to tell if you are definately infected is go to google and search for virus removal software. If when you click one of the links to look on how to remove the virus, IE will display a page that says something like "this page cannot be displayed".

Yes, that's happened to me a couple of times. IIRC there was a pic involved.

Next time, just shut down your comp. Actually, if clicking the red X in the top right didn't work, you were likely already infected from a previous browsing session. Those interweb pron pics can be a bitch

No pron on the huddle!!! ;)

Does it start running a scan?

It appears as if it is running a scan. Lots of flashing red borders on the window.

      Who is going to take a shot at Malik Willis

      By cranky · Posted

      So Willis had a good game against a poor defense and all of a sudden he is worth 50 million and is guaranteed to be better than Young. LOL I know he looked good in the 3 games he started, and I think he will have success long term, but anyone signing him up for a long term contract for 50 million is taking a huge risk.

      Is he really though? Rivera was past his prime and probably shouldn't have even started 2019 so his firing wasn't really unexpected or unwarranted. Rhule lasted two and a half years which was about one year too long in my opinion. Bringing him back that third year certainly wasn't impulsive and I would say Tepper was more patient than he should have been. Wilks finished out that third season and did pretty good but most everyone could see he really wasn't anything more than an intern HC. Bringing him back was not the long term answer so not bringing him back was the correct call. Hiring Reich was a mistake from the beginning and he recognized that fairly quickly. I am sure he knew he was going to catch a lot of sh*t for firing him so quickly ( and boy did he ) but it was absolutely the right thing to do given everything that was going on. The firing may have looked impulsive, but I think it was him recognizing he had royally f*ck up and just dealt with it instead of letting it fester.  That brings us to Canales. 2025 was only his second season and yet he delivered 8 wins and the NFC South title. And while that might not sound great, given the lack of talent and cap space they started with, it's a strong step in the right direction. I couldn't imagine Tepper not being pleased with their progress given the crap the Panthers' have been though under his ownership.
