It's a "gif" screenshot of what the OP is seeing, probably in his/her browser. It looks like a hijacked browser to me.

Check it again. His "GIF" screenshot has links in it, links you can click.

no, that's no gif, but sites like that often have embedded spyware in them.

Exactly, OP is full of it. Ban-time methinks.

That's not a screenshot

I'm corrected. However, it still appears to be a adware/spyware hijack. Is this a popup or from a regular browser opening?

Now that is very bad. I would run a scan immediately. You can get a free online scan at www.trendmicro.com.

Also, a search for bitdefender (yahoo), you can do another online scan from there.

listen to Engineer. do an online virus scan. if that fails, buy a virus scanner and get the latest virus definitions.

If it's a virus, the latest McAfee doesn't find it. Nor do Adaware, MS Antispyware (resident) or Spybot (also resident).

System is clean as a whistle. The page didn't ask me to download anything and installed no files on my drive.
