Have you all had issues with the "home page hijacker" titled "about:blank"? It seems the only time it tries to infect my computer is when I'm on the planetfeedback website.

Not a computer buff myself but I'll tell you what happened to my
brother in law. His computer takes five minutes to boot up. Asked
him why and he said the new antivirus program, don't know which'
checks every bit of info on the computer. He apparrently had a virus
that got by norton and was in the computer for 6 months.

We've had no issues with this ourselves nor have we had any indication
besides your letter that any other users are experiencing this
problem.

I'll send this over to our developer however, for the reasons stated
above, it's most likely something to do with your specific computer
and not PFB.

I haven't heard a thing about this, but I don't use Windows, so the
likelihood of a virus infecting my computer is substantially lower
than it otherwise would be. I hope others (especially the computer
geeks here!) read your post and can provide some feedback that helps
you.

I also would suggest that you contact greg@planetfeedback.com -- I
think he'd be interested in what you have to say about this.
