I have a Dell Vostro 1000 laptop with Windows Vista home basic. Starting mid-morning today (4th September 2010) I've started getting the following pop-up: [IMAGE] When I click "Show me the message" I get a pale blue/grey blank screen with an Internet Explorer window which has [URL] in the address bar.  The page doesn't load though and I have only just (after trying several times over the last few hours) got it to load in a normal internet window.  Here it is: [IMAGE] This to me does not look like a genuine Dell site and the Whois look up says that ddsupdate1.com is registered with "Domains by Proxy" which I understand is used to mask the identity of the website owner.   Anyway, I have McAffee on my computer which hasn't picked this up so I am unsure of what to do next.  If I close the little pop-up, it just reappears after about a minute.  I don't like the idea of this "thing" being on my computer! Any help is grateully received.  Thank you!
