The following keeps appearing on my Daughters pc in the hotmail e-mail in box! Is it a legitimate site or just another scam? Your comments will be appreciated. I do not want to pst the url just incase. Google should find it quite easily.

Their website suggests that they do offer a service for sending out virus alerts, but she should not be getting them unless she signed up for them or possibly if she is using their program... I suggest a HJT log to see if there is anything out of order there... I am also not real trusting of companies that use affiliate programs, but I am sure there must be some legitimate ones out there...

Thank you for the advice guys! It is the junk file any how. I will check an HJT.
