Somehow I got the gator on my work computer. I work out of my house on an intranet. I also access the web for research. I done use it for non work related stuff. The work computer has Black Ice and a bunch of mirror software and my company monitors my activity.(all my activity by the minute!) Any unauthorized use is grounds for termination. I have an old Think Pad for personal use. My wife used it a couple of times and may have gotten it from checking her hotmail. I was getting a university ad on a timed popup. It was a pita but not a big deal. I just got one tonight advertizing a phone sex line! That's IT! My wife has a BA in Comp Science. We just found and deleted a gator something or another . ( I said she has the degree not me) Then I found a site that has step by step instructions on how to disable the feature on your computer. We tried it. It'a a wait and see now.
