It looked official, but I did a search on it anyhow. Im glad I read this first. I recieved an error message saying I had serious System thread issues, and needed PreformanceOptimizer.

Running FF3 on OSX. The popup shows a Win XP window though so it's really obviously malware but how annoying. It is the first popup I've seen like this on a Mac though.

This is the first time I've ever encountered any dodgyware - ever. I'm impressed. PerformanceOptimizer just grabbed a LiveJournal page suddenly on my Mac, in FireFox!

Had rather pesky fake warning messages about my computer having a problem and insisting that it was going to install even as I navigated away from the page. I have no respect for websites that knowingly display ads like this or supposed "software vendors" who need to use this tactic to try to distribute their crap software.
