What is 'Progra~1'? I presume Program Files.

It didn't do that to me. I wonder if you are using Internet Explorer,
which even the US government's US-CERT cybersecurity center has warned
people not to use!

I use Opera and Firefox.

I visited the site, then checked with Adaware and Spybot Search and
Destroy, no problems.
