What is DZ.COM trying to do?

Recommended Posts

I keep getting a pop up that says that my browser has blocked this website from downloading files onto my computer.:|

Thank God it's not just me. I just posted to the Errors and Bugs forum.

I'm trying to decide whether to turn off the damn speakers or turn off my hearing aid!!!

:D:D:D

When that does happen, the ad banner doesn't show.

I get that too, around 50% of the times I open a page. - and the banner up top says "navigation to the webpage is cancelled", or remains white altogether when this happens

It's not DZ.com per se, it's the banner ads.



What are they trying to make my computer have?

That's what I figured. (turning off hearing aid) :P


It's tied to DZ.COM - but I don't think that DZ.COM is directly responsible.

I still want to know what they are trying to DL. I'm thinking data miner?

But then you lose track of the threads that have been looked at.

The real solution is: Don't use IE. No problems with Firefox.:P

I did that accident'ly while trying to find out what the eff my browser was talking about.

You just get a normal banner, for velocity sportswear in this case.
Be back later - 'm gonna run ad-aware now..
