What is it with "Have you lost your keys?"

By
Real Estate Agent with The Berkshire Group

What is it with the message, "Have you lost your keys?"  Recently, when I have tried to see a posting on ActiveRain, I have gotten this message "Have you lost your keys?".... and then asking for more info...sorry, I immediatly remove myself and try to communicate with someone else.

I may be unaware of what is going on...can someone enlighten me?  Gosh, if I post something on ActiveRain, I hope that someone will comment...what is with the barrier?

I haven't run into that. I would run an unscheduled virus scan. It sounds like either a virus or it is a pop-up commercial that was placed on your computer while installing another piece of software or app. I have stopped allowing Facebook apps because of the number of viruses and trojans they can contain.

I too have gotten that message, along with other weird ones. Thank heavens it's not just me. I felt picked on.

Emelyn, Sometimes the author has removed the post, so that would do  it.  Sometimes just a glitch, hit refresh and try again.  Other than that, don't know the answer for this one.  Do you use Internet Explorer or Firefox?  I've heard there have been compatibility problems with IE9, so switching to Firefox might help.

Thanks for your responses.  Sometimes I use Internet Explorer and sometimes Firefox.  Next time I see that message I will double check which one I am using....
