I’m not sure of you can do anything about this, but I just recieved a “like” from this blogger: aniketsharmaphotography.com It looked like a serious blogger, so I went to check out his site. As soon as the page loaded, I got one of those popup windows that said my Mac might have viruses, blahblahblah. The only way to get out of that page, or even close my browser was to click “ok” for the download. I shut off my computer instead, so it didn’t install, but this is totally NOT cool for a blogger to have this crap on his site. Just thought I’d let you know.

The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

You didn’t get a popup window? Do you have a mac or pc?

Besides, that’s MY blog you scanned, not the one that froze up my computer, which is aniketsharmaphotography.com. I understand if it’s not hosted on wordpress.com nothing can be done. But my own blog is fine.

No I did not get a pop-up. I am on a PC running windows 7 and using a Firefox 41 browser.
