Moi? Infected? Impossible.
The Aloni Suites link worked for me after I saw your response, John. Sorry if I caused any alarm or defamed anyone. And thanks for checking into it for me.

The Aloni Suites link worked fine for me earlier and also, just now.

You may already have an infected system.

I opened the post to Space A Lodging - Souda Bay - from mawh. The post suggests a private apartment near the base, and contains a link, allegedly to the home page of the apartment. When I clicked the link, I got all sorts of phishy looking pop-ups saying the Windows Internet Explorer had found spyware files, and suggesting that I remove the files by clicking the OK button. I did not click OK, but clicked on Cancel and immediately used McAfee to scan my computer for spyware, and found nothing. Had I clicked the OK button I fear I would have had a mess. Can anyone check on this before some other member may get infected?
