Repeatedly downloaded from where?  Email?  Websites?

Dunno. Just as in the post I linked to 

WARNING

So far, it seems to only affect Chrome, so am trying to work out if its a bug in Chrome that has been exploited..

 

It appeared at the bottom ofthe screen as if I'd tried to download it, but I hadn't. Wasn't really watching. Did it three times!  Not done it today.

 

It might have come from an ad on PistonHeads. seehttp://www.pistonheads.com/gassing/topic.asp?h=0&f=24&t=1613531

Ah, fair enough.  I know that nice Mr Drake from TRL Towers has been working stupidly long hours making this site more robust lately so I'd hate to see it coming from here, I'm not sure his poor computer could take the kicking he'd give it.
