When accessing the "Pings" page or any other page within FR I get a message box with the following message: ( See Below )

Well, it looks like this is a standard message you get when trying to access that actual site:

https://www.the-snackbar.com/forum/snackbar/786-for-those-who-ask-where-i-am.html

It appears to just be a private forum. Maybe if you’re using bookmarks to navigate FR, the bookmarks got screwed up somehow?

10/4, like I said, just a shot. Good luck.

[spel_grammer_an_punct_polise]

Well, whaddaya know! I disabled all search engines except the default, Bing, and the message box is gone.

Snack Bar, Austin ??

Well, since you have no idea what is making that box appear, you opt for the safest approach.

There’s something on your computer that doesn’t belong. If one anti-malware program doesn’t find it, try another one.

Thank you to all with helpful comments as well as the humorous comments. I like to laugh, too! ;-)

[Harpotoo]

You at work?

Time to release the...
SPORKWEASEL

[sparklite2]

I’m not the one with the problem.
I run MalWareBytes and Spybot, in
addition to Win 10’s security.
So far, so good.

“You at work?”

Work? What in the world is that? ;-)

I got the problem solved by disabling all search engines except the default search engine.

[spel_grammer_an_punct_polise]

Thank you for the image! ;-)

[sparklite2]

That’s really crappy. It doesn’t show up in task manager processes or the task bar and it won’t let you close the tab/browser until you either cancel or press the X. It’s a microaggression!

[Fresh Wind]

Oh, yeah, sorry.

[HangnJudge]

Another Freeper Classic

"Work? What in the world is that? ;-)"

Work is that thing I am least afraid of, I can cozy right up next to it and go to sleep.

 

 

 

[TigersEye]

Did I miss any? ;-)

Are you now or have you ever been a spork weasel? :)

[Uncle Miltie]

[kiryandil]

[kiryandil]
