Anyone know what its about?

Is this just a trick to make me get malware software? Not just the reply I'm quoting but the popup Flash warning?

I would say so..... I think the original error was to try and get you to install some malware too.

I don't get the error anymore.

Sorry I didn't reply earlier, I've got all notifications turned off.
