Oh I know, but I needed to know my cousin's address and my aunt sent it me, but it won't let me read the messages. Oh well.

and hitting f5 wouldn't get you back to the messages? did you contemplate just putting in bogus information? it's not like that damned thing is going to go through the hassle of verifying what you put in

^I tried bogus stuff, but that doesn't work. After hitting F5 multiple times it will go away for a little bit sometimes. I deactivated my account and reactivated it, but it is still there.

I'm just amazed he knew how to screenshot, given all of the above. This is what my 80-year-old aunt would have on her computer.

Ugh! I ran that malwarebytes program and it still pops up. It annoys me to know a virus is on my computer. Any ideas on how to get rid of it?

Cool! I think it is gone. I updated that program that I downloaded and it detected 3 more things and now the window didn't pop up again!

Ah, one of those people who can't distinguish between what exists on the internet and what exists on their computer.

This is the kind of person who gets viruses.
