OK, are the Repugs messing around? I was unable to get into DU, this morning.

I clicked on my link, but nothing happened. Didn't even get an error message. I was finally able to get into DU by searching for a DU link, but that locked up as well. So, I ran Malwarebytes which found 2 something or others. Once those were gone, I had no trouble getting in to DU.

BTW, all my other every day links worked fine. Only DU was locked out.

They were called PUP:Frostwire TB.A

Never had this happen before. Any ideas?

Thanks for the translation.

Next time, I won't waste time trying to figure it out. I'll just "clean" house. #$%^^

I'm happy to know it was an internal situation.
