[RTTY] FW: QRZ.com virus

[Scott Long]

I didn't even click on any side bars and got it twice.  Had to run Spybot to
get rid of the junk.  I won't be visiting QRZ dot com anymore.

So can we avoid the mal-ware if we don't click on any of the side-bar
advertising?

Trying to sell bogus Anti Virus software..  I've had it happen also from
other sites.. The fix has been to reset your computer to a safe start point
a couple of days before this happened..
