When I tried to access my Yahoo Mail-- I got the following message..

"You have attempted to establish a connection with "us.js2.yimg.com" However, the security cerfitcate presented belongs to "a248.e.akamai.net" It is possible, though unlikely, that someone may be trying to intercept your communication with this website."

I googled this without much results-- ran an adware-- found 5 criticals, rebooted, same thing..

Then I notieed I had 8 windows updates I needed to install--

Did those and it went away, I dont know what it was, any ideas??

I got that too. I figured that the certificate for some ad had expired. I just clicked okay and my computer hasn't blown up yet.

Yahoo mail has had a virus running through it for at least a week. I received the following email from one site I belong to...

If you think you have been infected by this JS.Yamanner ordeal (the
new graphic site emails), run this tool. It is provided free from
Microsoft as a download. Here's the link:

//www.microsoft.com/security/malwareremove/default.mspx

The download is free, it takes about 30 seconds for it to go through
your computer, if you have dial-up it will probably take longer) You
will need to download ActiveX controls to run this cleaner. (You will
be prompted and given a link if you don't have ActiveX installed already)
