The java script thing that IS coming up to many is dirty advertising and is not due to someone having wrong settings

I was getting strange Java warning in I.E 9.0 over the last day .. like something on the GBT video pages was trying to execute a javascript. I also got (yesterday) a warning from I.E that another site was trying to track my I.P # while I viewed GBT videos ... then (today) I get a different I.E warning (while viewing GBT video pages only) that "Intranet settings are turned off by default" and offering me the option to turn them on. Something is going on .... not sure what .. but it's like the GBT video pages have something in their code that is trying to open my PC to remote access.
Strange !!

Mike - I have AVG Free, and Spybot Search and Destroy installed on my comp.
I have never had a viral infection, nor a warning that GBT might be infected.
I believe that AVG is the most trustworthy anti-virus prevention that there is.
You might consider using it.
