    My browser decided to just up and direct me to a site for Antivirus 2010. (Apologies if there is a page for it, I didn’t see it when I looked around.) I have a different (and very good, I might add) antivirus, so I knew something was wrong, and did my best to exit out of all of its various things without downloading anything, but I’m wondering if it’s likely I’ve been affected anyway?
