When I'm the classifieds and gallery and I hit the back button I get a bar that says are you sure you want to leave this page and at the bottom of the bar it says from "true".. what is this? I've never seen it before the last few days. Virus on my end maybe?

Thanks for the update on how you fixed it.

I wonder if that's a similar issue to people reporting similar stuff in this other recent thread:

I'm not getting the pop up anymore but it will still lock up on a page and not completely load, until I close the tab and open a new one.. strange still.

Sounds similar, but I doubt the solution is the same. I had it happen on both a PC/Internet Explorer and a Mac/Safari, which would not be affected by the same malware, other than the possibility of JavaScript in an ad.

I saw the same message from another site that is typically full of pop-ups and ads (PC troubleshooting, not porn!), leading me to think it was some embedded JS in an ad. Those help pages are full of ads from those supposedly offering protection, but they themselves are some of the worst offenders!

Since the ads rotate here, it would be intermittent.

I haven't had it lock up my PC or Mac, though... might be similar but not identical.

Speaking of classifieds, how does one find an ad for a particular item. I want something specific and don't want to wade through 300 pages of classifieds that cover every part of every VW ever made.

Thanks.
