Anyone else having problems with gunsamerica.com? They sent me a wishlist notice via e0mail this morning, and when I clicked on link of AR I was interested in, got an authenticate and siign in menu pop-up. Try to cancel out, and menu kept popping up, then locked up computer, wouldn't my operating system work. Used Task manger, ended program; tried to go to gunsamerica via search engine, and same thing happened.. I'm not the smartest of computer users, but I did check for viruses, McAfee did a san, could't fix one problem; did a system restore... then went back online, tried to get back to Gunsamerica site... SAME THING...:( So, just a heads up, and if any body else is having trouble with gunsamerica site, I'd appreciate a heads up...

Thanks... Computer dummie:confused:

I just went there and had no problems. I think you have some spyware on your system. McAfee will not take care of it.

Get MS Security Essentials and Malwarebytes.

http://www.malwarebytes.org/

Start with those two and see if that fixes the issue.

Downloaded Microsoft security and Malware program... Micro didn't find a prob; but Malware did... Registry Data Items Infected: 1 called: Hijack.DisplayPro

Also received following from Gunsamerica customer service:

"Thank you for your contacting us. We cannot say for sure what caused the exact problem you were encountering. However we can say our site was in fact experiencing temporary and sporadic problems this morning which have since been resolved."

Anyways, thanks very much for the help... hope this fixes everything. r42david:)
