On mine as I recall, about 3 screens popped up saying I have a virus or something and wanted me to click a button to download a fix for it. Then it started listing the viruses and things it found. You might want to read the other 2 threads on this as someone made a better description than I'm doing from a 2 week old memory and they posted an image of the page. I took a photo of one screen and I'll try to remember to post the image when I get home.

On my Dell at work (a university with good security network) where I am now I have noticed sometimes the computer locks up and won't change pages and I have to shut it down to get it going again when on the TOTV site.
