Hi Mick - this just came up in XP the other day. Justin was looking into it, but seemed to need more details - apparently it's happened before.

The danger lies not in the machine itself but in the user's failure to envision the full consequences of the instructions he gives to it.

Hello,
I was waiting for confirmation that this affects more than just one person. I'll try to fix it.

Hello,
I have had ads linking to diywebkit.com blocked as a stopgap solution. Did this work?
