Dear IB, Please Stop Attacking My Computer
Once again this morning the site took over my computer. i was closing a window and another browser popped up automatically. It then began opening window after window, fibnally crashing my computer after opening 56 separate IE windows.
Are you using some sort of malicious cookies or tracking software? Are you selling my browsing information? I'm not the only person that this has happened to. |

I mean it's never happened to me and my computer is flipping old...but i have brand new safeware! Most likely not the site and more likely the fact you have bad protection and are also allowing pop-up's! |
I don't know if it's from IB, but i started getting spam emails a few months ago. That NEVER used to happen. It makes me wonder if our email address list is being sold...:angry-smiley-038:

Glad I'm not the only one getting a WHOLE lot more spam emails than ever before :mad: |
IB is not serving pop over or under advertising on OSO. Also we do not share or sell email addresses with any third party. We take every measure to ensure the security of all personally identifiable data of our members and will not share that data with any third party. The pop under/multiple windows issues as well as the spam you’re reporting should not be caused by this site. However we will escalate you concern with our technical team to see if we can identify the cause.

I have never had that happen to me here, but I do remember in the mid 90's it was very simple to make a Java bomb that would do that. try something other than norton and make sure all profiles are up to date, make sure you have the latest patches and check your ie security settings. it is your machine.

norton has not always worked for me, i had some buddies do me up right... all me tech buddies tell me norton is junk... if that mans anything to ya....
|
it,s also a resource hog.
