Photobucket virus, be careful
Just wanted to warn you guys from logging into Photobucket at the moment.
Uploaded a picture a couple of hours ago and suddenly it closed the browser window and poped up a fake antivirus site that started to scan my computer. Luckily my Norton Internet Security blocked the attack so be careful logging in there unless you have a proper firewall and antivirus program installed.
Attack seem to originate from: prosecure-protection8.com

Did it happen to you too?
Strange thing is that it was able to pop up an run for a short while on my computer but the log in the antivirus program says it blocked the attack.
Was scary shit as it wasnt the normal fake popups, btw I had just uploaded a picture so maybe that was what triggered it.
