Systems clean. I ran Housecall to see if Comodo missed something, Spybot, Hijackthis, about the worst thing I found was a doubleclick cookie.

I'm thinking about making some changes anyway so might wipe the drive and install a new operating system but it's probably fine.

I figured it might be some online retailer, that or a gas station but you never know, it could of come from anywhere.

Just threw this out there to see if happened to anyone else.

A while back there was an credit card scam issue with a popular Gas station up at Castiac where I got diesel there all the time, because it was the cheapest place around. When one of the guys posted about it on FNN at least a dozen posters had been hit, most for over $300+. After that I quit using the station.

Evidently someone was putting a piece of hardware in the pumps, a credit card skimmer, and when they would change the receipt paper they'd retrieve the collected data, and move it from pump to pump. Anyone who used a card with a pump with the skimmer in it had their info stolen. Since the stations right next to the lake a lot of fisherman got hit. That was a few years back, and it didn't happen to me but you never know.

I mean it's no big deal these things happen. I'll give BOA credit they had me on the phone before it even made it to my account.
