Here's a unique popup ad...

Saw this one today while surfing. It came up underneath a bunch of popups and while I was closing them all this one really threw me off. Gotta admit it's different

Yes! I have to admit it really caught my eye. I've got to be careful, my daughter tends to click these things.

The most frustrating thing about those type of popups, is that my G'ma will click on them, or she'll call me up and ask what to do with them.

I heard something about that they want to make a law about that pop ups shouldn't look like real error messages.

Ohhhhh
That makes sense now..
We had a customer call the other day that said Internet Washer Pro was doing something, and it was causing an error...
That explains how it was installed
Users don't get permissions to do much, so it must be pretty light .. but still causes errors
