About the time the DR1 board was updated, I noticed that whenever I would log out of DR1, I had to click on "Log Out" twice. I first thought that this was strange, but attributed it to the upgrade. Dumb me.

In a moment of idleness, I decided to run my virus program (which picked it up but would not remove it), and three other programs (only one of which picked it up). It was very hard to remove, but after about 4 hours, the other program finally got rid of the malware. I believe it was some kind of program which allows the installer to copy your signin and passwords, which if you also do online financial work, may allow them to get your passwords, etc or steal your identity or money, or both.

I haven't noticed any weird postings by me here (some may disagree) so i guess they weren't after my DR1 account info. If you have the same problem (clicking twice to log off DR1), it may mean you need to do the same.
