When I open www.pistonheads.com in Chrome, I get an automatic download of a file called meld.js. Unsure whether this is related to the PH site, or just chance, though having tried ten other favourite sites, PH is the only one where I'm prompted to download.

Cheers, and happy LM.

And me, my computer blocked it, which actually made it really difficult to login.

Same here. "This type of file can harm your computer. Do you want to keep meld.js anyway"

.js is usually a Java script . . . but I don't know what it might be for.

Bet its to do with that Admeld crap that keeps crashing everything on a daily basis as it trys to and fails continuously to load adverts.
