Thanks for the warning. I haven’t seen this and hopefully I won’t. Hopefully it’s just another bad ad that made it through and it’s a one time thing. Plus, I never install from a pop up that says something is out of dare. I always do what you did and go to the source of the software and check and download from there if there is an update.

Hey guys, we're just starting to see these today, and I'll be asking the rest of the team here to BOLO for them.

I have not seen it but, I will grab pictures of if I do and you need more than what Dave already provided. Although I am running a virus scanner and that may be why I’m not seeing it.
