I received an e-mail from a professional organization that provided a
link to a website. >
http://newsletter.swd.ca/link.php?M=98038&N=220&L=119&F=H
When I clicked the link, a full screen video captured my computer. No
way to stop it (without shutting off the computer). These did not work:
Ctrl Break, ctrl+alt+delete, esc, enter, tab, f1-f8, you name it, I was
captive.
How do I stop this type of behavior (besides never clocking on any
link)? How do I prevent the take over of my computer when browsing or at
least escape from it? Obviously AV and firewalls did not work, nor
spybot/teatimer.
Suggestions?
I got no "full screen video [which] captured my
computer." SM opened in normal mode, and the built in
wmp player played. Is that what you're talking about?
When your browser opened, it opened in full screen,
with no menus, etc? If so, then you didn't go all the
way with the F keys. Its F11 to change it back.
Also, you might want to check your javascript settings:
Edit, Preferences, Advanced, Scripts & Plug-ins, and
uncheck Move or resize existing windows, and Raise or
lower windows.
