Anyone having problems with Photobucket?

I can log on, then get some pop up crap that says I have viruses and tries to load some supposed antivirus on my comp and wont let you exit!

I know they have been hacked before, but don't know if this is just me....

I just tried..didn't have any problems John.

I have tried and tried, I emptied cache, temp files etc. Ran my antivirus, my spyware thingy, and even a registry cleaner.... and I still get a bunch of crap when I get there, now it pops up a window that says it is an attack site and not to enter!

My daughter recently had to format her laptop and reload everything because of something similar. Hers was any site she went to. She couldn't even defragment her computer because whatever trojan it was had taken control. Before doing anything that drastic, make sure you get your latest Windows update. It has a malicious software removal tool that's supposed to get rid of some new worm.

Vickie, I thought I had the automatic windows updater, but when I checked it didn't update with the big service pack.... So it took a couple hrs lol but I did it and now it is working again.... THANK YOU

If Macs are anything like Apple's iPods, they are just as much trouble. The iPod updates usually come with a lot of bugs (not the trojan or virus ones). I have learned never to update my iPod or Itunes until all the bugs are worked out.
