Has anyone else started getting a message asking if you want to leave the page, on this site only, every time you want to move to another
page even within the same post?
I seems to stagger from one computer glitch to another at the moment!

Sorry I don't get that message and can't help with it either. I just stopped by to admire your Norwich Dragon avatar!

Thank you, I got dragged all round the city to find them, some were magnificent. Everytime I change page or even move within the the same post, I get the message Are you sure you want to leave this page? and I have to click on OK. It only seems to happen within this website though.
That message is generated by Javascript within a web page. However I've never seen that message here on Answerbank. Further, I've just examined the source code for a few pages here and, while Javascript is used for other purposes, the code to generate that message simply isn't present.

That leads me to suspect that you've got MALWARE on your computer, that's injecting the relevant code into the pages that you're viewing for some strange reason.

Download, install and run the free version of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware to see if that fixes your problem:

(NB: At the end of the installation process you'll encounter a pre-ticked box which invites you take a free trial of the Premium version of the program. Ensure that you remove the tick before proceeding further).
