I clicked on a link on an email from 7dayshop to look at a webcam tonight and next thing I know, something called Flashgot has installed itself and opens an 'about' page.
Anybody know what this is? Is it spyware. I think I've disabled it and uninstalled it but am running adaware and AVG anyway just to make sure.
Anyone seen this happen before?
