"Integrity" and "integer" both contain a Latin root meaning "whole; complete." The root sense, then, is that people may be said to be acting with integrity when their beliefs, words, and actions have a sense of unity or wholeness.

Sounds like some sort of adware/spyware/malware/virus issue dude
Have you run any checks on your PC?

Install Spybot & Ad-Aware, see if it comes up with anything. Try Firefox, see if it says the same thing. You'll get loads more replies if you posted this up in the software thread :wink: Just a word of advise for next time

sounds like a virus my dad had once. Also grab Spybot: Search and Destroy, it's free and does an AWESOME job.
