Has anyone seen this notice? I recently found this notice on Photobucket.com after I logged on? I quickly closed out of it... :x

When it says go to my homepage instead what does it say there? Is it just a link? Can you look at properties of the link and not click it, right click select properties.
This sounds to me as if you have a virus on your PC, Trojan??
When last have you done a virus scan of your PC? Do you have virus protection on your PC?

Michael, not going to push my luck- no virus on my end...I'll give it a couple days and check back.
Haven't gotten any notices from any other sites. Keeping my fingers crossed.

BTW: I did get a virus a while back from clicking on a sponsored Google ad banner, on a well known and protected site as other members did. So I'm gun shy of clicking on ANY ads or banners! The offending banner and ads were removed by the moderator of that forum and my PC has been updated and cleaned by a pro since.

OK... but the note to go to my homepage instead suggests to me it is on your PC and not photobucket.
You might want to do a free virus scan on one of the many websites on the internet....
I have used this one in the past:
