Just a heads up guys, the stupid add's from the site occasionally open a website telling you that you need to update your Java application. This is a hoax and the VMan team should get on this and get it removed asap. It trys to take you through to updowntuv.com. After doing some research this is a malware program from russia.

Just thought I better let you all know as you really don't want this on your computers, and we all know that vman staff aint very fast when it comes to fixing things.

I've had a bit bother with pop ups recently and this seem to be only site it happens on.

Same. I've had the java up date screen several times today. I'll report it now. I thought it was just me tbh but luckily I don't click on any pop ups. Always go through the proper site.
