    The other day I was getting some crap only when on WGT, it kept taking the page and redirecting me to another that had the addy goadvs.com or something like that. Did not appear while on any other web sites, only WGT, it even popped up and redirected me once when I was in the game client playing and had nothing else open. Finally googled it, found it tobe virus and then found my virus scan to be outdated. I updated it, it dug up the virus and things have been fine since. I click a lot of the free vids here, think it may have come from one of them maybe.

    The virus is a "browser hijacker", it crashes your browser trying to redirect you to the site they want you on...

    like I have said on here a dozen times.... use "winpatrol" and it is stopped before it does anything, no changes to root system allowed!

    The only pages I'm having trouble with are the home page or any player profile page.

    I have no other trouble on any other site. But I'll give winpatrol a shot.

    i have been talking with a few friends that have been having a lot of pc problems recently. They are almost certain it is coming from WGT site. With all of the adds and extra useless information we get on here recently i am not surprised.

    unless you have this issue !

    It might just be the case of lip outs.

    A virus is not going to make you miss putts.
