[QUOTE="pontiend, post: 1025364, member: 275842"] I consider myself pretty good at spotting Browser hijackers PUPs etc. Something got me today though.I was looking for something on ebay. Browsed around a bit .Then shut firefox down.I found that Ebay had hijacked my Desktop. I have no idea how it got there just a bit of browsing no downloads.Needless to say it was gone not long later.I will have a look later to see if I can do it again and spot what happened.:) [ATTACH=full]109871[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
