it's most likely something any of those three antispyware/virus proggies don't like about the php code in r'osity's forum. what i would suggest is starting with lowering your internet security levels or at least placing the forum url on the trusted list. other than that, i wouldn't know. it's most likely some weird javascript/activex/php bug that's either due to bad coding on r'osity's side or simply a hokey app on your end.

as an add-on, i would suggest sometime in the near future that you upgrade to something other than windows ME. it is the most bug-ridden version of windows EVER.
