Someone fix it. When I post I'm getting a pop-up about a codec. BS.

Sure it's not a problem with your own browser/computer?

You would have had to previously downloaded the virus.

UCHusky - possible, but unlikely that the Boneyard is popping codes on you.
More likely you have malware contaminating your browser.
Have you scanned with a malware scanner recently?

Also, not a virus. A pop-up in a browser window is indicative of malware, not virus, which is typically something that is executed on your machine.

Better yet, install malwarebytes. Update. Scan. Remove evil files. Wash your hands and fix dinner.

And the forum isn't magically giving you viruses btw.

I pay to have this site scanned real time. There are no viruses here.

The problem is usually an over aggressive virus/malware software on the users computer.

I used to work in IT and I have malwarebytes and my own antivirus. It's on the site.
