Unfortunately, you have a virus. Do a Google search on "JS.Downloader!gen33" and learn about it. How to remove it is described here

Thanks. I'll see if I can find the file using the info on the link you provided.
It's interesting issue. Norton does say it automatically removed it when the message pops up. I only get the message when I visit pages on this forum. I didn't get the message when I visited the forum up to and including yesterday. I don't get it when I visit any other web site.

I dumped Norton years ago after repeated issues with viruses. If you can do a reset back to a previous date before the virus that will work.

Fix me stick works well for all those types of add ons or phishing viruses. You can get them at wal-mart. Good investment for wireless computer users like me.

Well, for what ever reason, (maybe a Norton update, who knows) I don't receive that message anymore. All's well that ends well. :-)
