lol about that error…

well i haven’t been using this netbook at all, but it along with the laptop (last one i did all the tests on & seemed to turn up negative as well) were used at the free wifi places, before someone had either gotten info from my email or something (& had gotten into a couple sites online i had been at, & ordered a couple things).

after changing all passwords i could, etc., i haven’t had any of those types of problems - but i do feel completely nervous like there’ll be another day when i get an email saying “thank you for your order” when i in fact ordered nothing. (i just don’t know exactly how that happened, which makes me feel very insecure)

the only weird thing was the other day, on my pc (the first machine taken thru the motions here, but obviously never taken to a free wifi place!). after being off it for maybe 5 or more days (maybe longer than that), all of a sudden i got those weird trojan warnings (blocked, not gone to) while at facebook. this was AFTER people had gotten those false positives around the 5th. & again, just like the other 2 times i had gotten weird trojan warnings (web shield), i hadn’t been redirected anywhere & they didn’t make sense at all.

i didn’t post the 2 warnings anywhere (tho did mention them in the one facebook warning thread from the 5th i think)… i have screen captures of the warnings but they just do not seem right at all. the one time i was cancelling an upload of some photos at facebook - only place i was & sure wasn’t where the alert said i’d been… then another was a few minutes after i’d uploaded some photos to facebook & was simply writing text about a couple of them (again, not going anywhere).

has anyone ever thought that some of these false positive type things could be caused by TrackMeNot? obviously TMN makes it “seem” like you’ve been places when you really physically are not at those places. it seems that i noticed right after i got one of those alerts, i looked to the bottom left, & it said TMN: ERR or something… so even though no one’s made the connection that i’ve seen, i’ve always been wondering if there’s not some connection.
