Someone want to tell me what the hell is wrong? I was at the site, then logged out and went to yahoo.com (my homepage) but instead of the site, I got this pop-up that said "Would you like to save this program or find something to download it with" or some crap like that...well I tried opening a new window three times, and each time I get the same message. Now it's fine, or obviously I wouldn't be typing this.

Did I just dodge a virus?

Might want to run a virus/malware scan. Sounds very suspicious!
