Delievered via browser through one of the newground ads. Doesn't do much harm more of annoying. Just pits a window in your tray that you cannot close.

See attached picture for banner and Virus name.

I got the exact same thing from a different site today. I looked it up on the Symantec site, and it says it's not malicious, just annoying. But does it have any type of payload I should know about?
