Hi Chapsie - we've had a chat with Tech and they say this was likely caused by a rogue advert and/or perhaps a little issue with your laptop.

Perhaps do a virus scan just to make sure everything's okay at your end.

My laptop is fine all checked. Thanks

my Kaspersky package is also coming up with lots of phishing warnings from the discussions of the day and other threads, and there's nothing apparently wrong with my laptop either.

time to get off MN for a while!
