I looked at this earlier and I think it is a shitty angle. I can't tell if any of this is being collected, nor can I see the plume in it's full glory.

It's just very misleading.

Nuke It

 

"A nuclear explosion over the leak," he says nonchalantly puffing a cigarette as he sits in a conference room at the Institute of Strategic Stability, where he is a director. "I don't know what BP is waiting for, they are wasting their time. Only about 10 kilotons of nuclear explosion capacity and the problem is solved."

You may have one of the viruses that masquerades as an anti-virus program.  If so, it will keep flagging more and more programs including your native anti-virus software until you are well and truly shut down.  

Run a full scan if you can.  Wipe and reinstall your OS otherwise.

You'll get these from surfing porn. Not that I know that from first-hand experience, mind you.

I understand if you have been actively surfing porn, especially bestiality themed material, it will cause you to double post at ZH.

Do not enter that site.... I have been bitten by that bug already.  Computer is still in the garage.  They will try to sell you a fix it softward which is a rip.  There is a package that is suppose to fix it, but, yes, once again I got ripped.  Good luck

It is just the live feed from the skandi neptune.  Try this link and click on whatever camera you want and it will open in wmp.  http://data.plan9.de/akamai-bp-streams.html

And yes, I get a trojan warning everytime I visit any story on ZH and I am running Malwarebytes 1.46

I got what I think is a trojan and I can't get rid of it with Malwarebytes or Norton, both of them are coming up with clean scans. I get re-directed when I use Google or Bing search. Comptuter slowing down more every day. Guess I'm gonna have to get into the Windows registry and see if I can figure out what the hell is going on.

Spybot search and destroy should help:

Especially look out for "Broser Helper Objects (BHO's)". Anything not microsoft og google are probably Evil.

BTW: The Norton brand is owned by Symantec - The place where garbage software goes to join the undead legions sucking the worlds computing resources! I would not touch anything Symantec with a bargepole with turbo-timmies wiener stuck on the end!

A-Squared Anti-Malware from Emsisoft has a free version that is outstanding. I pay for the total protection but if you update it every day and scan every day you will be well taken care of.

try the free version of Avira's antivirus, available at avira.com

Best money you'll ever spend on AV.

I use Linux, and yes there is a trojan on that feed.

When I got on Chrome instead of Firefox, that fixed it for me. Firefox gets reinfected easily.

"Firefox gets reinfected easily.{"

Are you using Adblock and Noscript with FF?

Richard, perform a "system restore", this allows you to restore your system you PC to a previous date, i.e., the last time you remember that your system was working properly...after this, perform an "browser reset", only if your using internet explorer... don't know about other browsers.  oh, never ever disable "system restore"

I didn't get one here, but I know there's a fake "trojan alert" page intercept that wants you to believe your computer is "infected". . .

It'll take more than a Trojan to cap that sucker.

If you look closely at the triangular legs sticking out of the containment cap, you will see they are moving up and down. From www.theoildrum.com

"The swells from Hurricane Alex have reached the Deepwater Horizon site, and the hard connection between the Lower Marine Riser Package (LMRP) and the drillship means that the cap over the well is seeing some slight movement with the waves. This may soon have an impact on the collection efficiency. This is already suffering some impact due to weather – after reaching levels of about 25,000 bd."
