I read that someone was having something weird happen

[cboy4]

to their computer when they're logged on to DU.

Has anyone else's computer been redirected to:

U.S. Army Infantry Homepage
All Soldiers on Ft. Benning with observations or lessons learned that they want to share with the Army click on this link and fill out the Observation Form ...
www.benning.army.mil/ - 73k -


I got a certificate warning that says:

Organization: U.S. Government
Common Name: DOD CLASS 3 CA-7
www.benning.army.mil

I'm canceling the certificate and thus the connection. I'd have no reason to ever call up that web site, even though I'm sure it's a legitimate site. However, I do not trust the government.

It's just a coincidence since someone here just wrote about how they think they're being monitored from outside DU.

Anybody??

I left out/changed some syntax, so it would appear here.

6. There, finally. View the source in the Tom thread.

8. just got one on this thread. fascist fuckheads I suspect

playing on their computer.

[King Coal]

12. No, its ok.

[bigtree]

20. I don't know why I didn't think of that

simple explanations

[ret5hd]

10. Your browser is just trying to DL a pic from a .mil site and...

something is wrong with their certificate, expired or something.

if you look down to post #87 in Toms thread, you'll see where the reference to the pic is

[Rhythm and Blue]

11. Yeah, someone hotlinked to a picture on their servers.

Their certificate expired. No big deal.

[ret5hd]

13. And just for the record, that other thread you were talking about...

was so filled with gibberish and mis-used jargon that i soon came to the conclusion that it was no more than a case of someone wanting a little drama and attention.

[cboy4]

14. Right on, thanks everybody.

;)

[Marrah_G]

17. It just happened to me also

In the pencil dick thread.

But I see there is nothing to worry about.

21. About two months ago

I got a warning about a site. A window popped up and said the decertification was expired or something like that. I emailed DU to find out what was the matter. They didn't know. I didn't click on to the link, I did find out the string of numbers etc.

After going to the site with out clicking on, it was thru some foreign mumbo jumbo. But I then ran the numbers thru google and found a lot of links and sites, not really info, to different places all over the US. Some were Illinois court and some others. It got to be such a nothing effort I just stopped following it thru. I don't know what the problem was. But I think if you clicked on the link you might have been caught up in a virus or something. I haven't seen it since.
