Really? I am running spybot, teatimer, and avg. I haven't had anything pop up, I hope I'm not infected or lead anyone else to be. How could the website do that?
Update: Ran spybot and came up clean
ran the site through Norton safe web and it found nothing:
http://safeweb.norton.com/report/show?u ... 84&x=0&y=0
That is weird, Spybot was running quietly in the background unawares to me and posted an alert immediately after I clicked on the link telling me that it was preventing something from opening. A pop up box had already popped up advertising something in Chinese. I attempted to retreat using the back button, which being activateable suggested it had indeed launched a second page. The back button failed to work, at which time Norton told me it had detected a problem and removed it. Closing the I.E. session also closed my I.e. window that was running TeaChat.
The norton log showed that it had been a file called qqwcewu.exe in local settings / application data.
Norton removed that file, but left behind are 3 dat files with qqwcewu in the name, but browsing the web - I have been unable to find out what they may be!
P.s. beneath the pop up box the tapioca looked good.
Ah, that may be the difference...I am running firefox with adblocker plus (free adon that make life easier) , it blocks all pop-ups and odd ads. A lot of the malware attacks IE for some reason. Here is a pic for those who may be infiltrated

Thanks! You know my photo makes it look deceptively big. But yeah, the volume to the rim is a little over 6oz but realistically I usually only put in 4-5oz which makes it a nice summer bowl of sorts, since it is very lightweight. Deceptively so in fact. Not sure if the glaze is loquat, I'll post pics to the Hagi Thread soon.
I finished up my TeaDay with the same Baozhong, brewing it till it gave up and drinking it cool.
Spot 52 & Herb Master - I got the pop-up too on IE, but when I went to look at the cute doggie pic.

I realized that I never answered the poll question about the TeaZone.
Quite often I am definately
in the Zone. Especially here at home with DH and more frequently at work as I now have an area all set-up for tea! My co-workers just chuckle as I brew and drink tea throughout the day.

If you're running Firefox and adblock, you want to add NoScript as an addon for additional protection.
