As soon as I hit the 'clicky' in IE it opened up a anti virus scan thingy that took a couple of attempts to close, I will leave this comp for a day or so.0

Pleaseadvise someone. Could I have let in a problem. should I do a scan or is it my details could have been hijacked.0

Seems to only effect IE - Firefox was OK. The site is genuine but has had a popup added which seems to be a referral link - so I think the hacker is paid for sending hits to xponlinescanner. edit - XPOnlinescanner.com is a newer malicious website that may promote XPAntivirus which is a popular rogue anti-spyware program known to cause serious issues with computers on the internet.
This would only be a problem if you have downloaded the scanner
Cistolic - yes do a scan, but my best guess is that very little chance your details have been hijacked. The exploit was just to send hits to the xponlinescanner site.0 -
