Problem w/ the Grid Girls Thread?
I look in on the Grid Girls thread from time to time (actually frequently). Lately I've been getting a warning box (Norton) saying my computer is attempting to send personal information over the internet. It asks if I want to block it, which I always do. I don't get this on any other thread. Anybody else been getting it?

I didn't notice that grid girls thread before but did try it anyway and didn't get that message from my Norton.

The only problem with the grid girls thread is that we're running out of chicks!

I don't get it at other computers, so it must be mine at home. I get a Norton dialog box saying my computer is attempting to send personal information over the internet. It started in the last couple of pages. I was concerned that somebody had maybe put some kind of spyware on one of the posts.

Have you run a few anti-adware programs accross your pc first??
go to www.download.com and search for adaware se and spybot search and destroy v1.3 install them and run the updates and scans. they will catch most stuff on your pc.

Evan - when was the last time you checked for adware or spyware?. This may have nothing to do with but as a preventative measure, I would go through your system and check. Sneaky little bastards they are.
