Did you visit any websites that had bad scripts? Sometimes some bad websites can run and install bad scripts without your knowledge and then you get into trouble with Trojans and what-nots.

I personally feel that you should have kept this discussion in your recent thread about the same subject... makes it hard to follow or help you when you make new posts: Here is your original thread about the same thing.. http://www.pspbrew.com/forum/viewtopic. ... 8179#38179

No, actually you are suppose to stay away from bad sites. You can adjust the settings for scripts not to run automattically, but then it interferes with your browsing abilities on "safe" sites. Buy a good firewall. If you must visit those sites, do it on a piece of crap PC you don't care about.

Here is a bit you can learn from to get a good firewall: http://www.mixingonbeat.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=2014 Those guys in that place are pretty cool. They help.

I think we covered this already. I tested it and it works fine for me. I think something is not installed correctly in your PC. But for me to be able to troubleshoot it, I would have to login and browse around myself to see what's the matter. Do you trust me to look under the skirt of your PC?

What browser are you using? Using Internet Explorer is bad for spyware or bad scripts. Try swapping to a more secure browser such as Firefox or Opera.
