I liked playdg.com so much I made it one of my favorites.(Ruder should like this.)Every time I access it it tries to infiltrate my computer with a trojan program of some sort!whazzup with that?

Sounds like an already existing trojan that is just initiated by the site for some reason.

http://www.trendmicro.com/hc_intro/default.asp has a free online virus scan. You might use it if you don't have one already.

The Google search result for playdg displays a link that says 'This site may harm your computer.' I don't think I have ever seen that on a Google search result before. Maybe the playdg website has been hacked or something.

Is everybody that's getting this message using I.E. ?

This is what I'm getting from it- CWS Malware

Here's a listof addresses that have it. (The one from playdg.com is coming from todo2pm.com)

These attacks are directed at Internet Explorer users, use Firefox people!

I use Mozilla Firefox. I honestly recommend that EVERYONE uses this browser. It significantly cuts down pop-ups to almost non existent and significantly reduces the possibility of picking up viruses or spyware through your browser.

Also a built in spell checker.

I've always used firefox, a lot safer than IE

If I could uninstall IE from my computer, I would, but you can't. IE is programmed into the windows os. Firefox all the way.
