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.

      I don't think Rodgers but probably not for the political reasons I bet a lot of posters are motivated by. I just think he is not the QB for the Panthers, at all.

      It wasn't great but  the 2022 NYG won 9 of 16 games plus a playoff game. He had a 92.5 passer rating. 15 pass TDs 3200 yards, 7 rushing TD, 700 yards 6 fumbles 3 lost.  His first season he had 18 fumbles lost 11. Wow.  Anyhow he had problems in 2023 with injuries and didn't win poo before tearing his ACL. This year, no Barkley, not good, but you know.... these ACLs take a while and it was right and he throws right so pushes off of it.  I agree it doesn't hurt to let that guy compete cheap. You don't hand him the job like with Bryce or NYG with him.  When I look at what we have been saddled with, he doesn't look worse and has the physical advantage. So I don't get the umbrage given our situation. This "No we won't settle for anything less that the best" attitude and then taking Bryce Young was pathetic and I think that attitude brought us to where we are. That's where that poo gets you. Away from Mayfield, away from Darnold, even away from PJ - just to replace them with an inferior PJ.  At the same time I am not really advocating for the guy just looking at it objectively. It could be another guy with the same story. And yes the odds of him getting it are low but the numbers and performance from 2022 are for sure better than we see with Bryce even after a season of major propping him up with better players around him. Take a look don't take a look he fails or he doesn't fail...   to instead sit here and be happier with what we have is bullshit.
