Watch out for potential Firefox hacking attempt!

I just clicked on another MyLot user's ID and what came up was a screen that said "Urgent Firefox Upgrade! - Click here". I've never seen Mozilla (owner of Firefox) do anything like that, and I noticed that the url of that window was an odd one. So I didn't click. I closed Firefox and reopened it, because sometimes they will legitimately ask you to do that. But there was no upgrade. I very much suspect that this was an attempt to get unsuspecting users to click on a button that would download malware to their computer. So, be careful!
