Bug?

[anastasiav]

Every time I hit LJ, I get a login popup with a message that reads:

"A username and password are being requested by https://armssl.about.com. The site says: "Access Rights Manager""

Anyone else seeing this? Is it related to some link on one of the posts? A horrible bug in my computer? Something else??

I haven't seen that... which doesn't mean much but helps a bit in the narrowing down?

I think I got the same thing earlier today, just once though. Don't know anything about it.

I haven't seen it, but I don't have a paid account. That might make a difference. I think I'd try running a good antivirus program and a spyware checker, just in case though. It sounds suspicious.

I tried googling it, and got a couple of hits from something called organizedwisdom.com on health articles related to asthma. Does that ring any bells?

Sounds like they're trying to display an ad, but permissions aren't set properly on the ad (causing it to ask YOU for permissions). If you don't supply it, then the ad won't display.
