O.P. Shocked  MSN forcing adware onto us?
Each time I open MSN Messenger, I get an internet tab open up at the bottom in my taskbar, only i cant close it or maximise it*-) While its doing this, I cant click anything in MSN, and then about 15 seconds later it closes itself. I went into IE, and checked my history, and found the site in there, and when I opened it, it tried closing itself, but I clicked no, and then the site showed me this 8-)
