This is what Hobie has to say about it all..

FWIW, I've seen the ilivid pop up ad when I do visit RMN front page (with no admin settings).. Just the regular page. Not very often but it is there. I don't recall seeing it for a long time.

I know a few readers have reported seeing the ilivid pop up and their virus scanners blocked it.. Mine blocked 'something' but it said js redirect.. with some numbers after it. Not sure what that was. .. It wasn't ilivid though..

PS if this is a borrowed PC, the ilivid pop up might have infected it from before you borrowed it. It waits till it gets the right combination , at a website, and then 'pops-up.'

From Hobes:

Hi, Sus -

The "don't have permission to access" indicates that for some reason the server wasn't receiving the right username/password combination for the /members area and Morgan had dismissed the dialog box that asks for that combination, or some other momentary glitch was occurring.

The other message is from a different server: lp.ilividnewtab.com , which suggests the browser had sent a request for it. There has been an iLivid-related pop-up at RMN for some time now, so if it seemed that pop-up had been clicked on, it might generate the request to that remote server.

Possibly either (1) Morgan's mouse or keyboard is sending odd signals, or

(2) there's a virus on Morgan's computer.
