I just typed in the address for my myspace page (www.myspace.com/robert_the_mumble) but before the page can load fully a message comes up saying:
You must restart your computer before the new settings will take effect. (do you wish to do it now yes or no)
I also visited the mumbles' myspace page (www.myspace.com/themumblesofficial) and the same message appeared.
I clicked no on both occasions so I haven't restarted yet. Is this happening on anyone elses myspace page, is it a virus/spyware?

On the works internet, myspace shuts it down every time

I guess it is related to some trouble with the ever present Flash Player. When I visit youtube or Myspace, my Browser freezes all the time when I try to shut a window/tab when using firefox. Tried Galeon a few minutes ago, no problems encountered. By the way, I use Linux, so at least viruses for Win can´t affect me at all..

I had a chain mail on MySpace some days ago, declaring that you had to forward said message to twenty other friends to check your activity, and it came from Tom, the head honcho, allegedly.
Pointless to say I binned it with no further thinking...
But nothing like your thingy, thank god...

If you think it´s worth the trip this might be fun. Never mind the hundreds of quid for the fare..

I will post this on some Homerecording sites as well...
"Say you've just bought Pink Floyd's "The Dark Side of the Moon", released as a Super Audio CD (SACD) in its 30th anniversary edition in 2003, and you want to play it under Vista. Since the S/PDIF link to your amplifier/speakers is regarded as insecure for playing the SA content, Vista disables it, and you end up hearing a performance by Marcel Marceau instead of Pink Floyd."
