Default Links to the Internet via flyforum

Yesterday someone, in good faith on this forum described the tying of a fly which was demonstrated on an Internet site Nothingtoxic.com. PLEASE DO NOT GO NEAR IT It has links which activate v quickly and they are hard core porno. I had no control over their activation. However they contain trojans and all sorts of nasties. I wanted to shut them down but couldn't. What then flashes up is the instruction to buy "Security Tool".
Symantec have been removing these trojans from my pc for a little while now and have told me that this security tool is fraudulent.
They have been trying to attack my credit card details and until a few minutes ago immobilized my AOL.
Sincerely hope no one else has been caught.

I was on What ever you Want so got it.
