Alright heres whats going on.

Alright, so a few years ago i had a paypal account, i used it for 2 years with my ebay account. I stopped using it, i canceld it, and now i tired opening a new one. So i go to open a new account, everything is going fine, then i had to "confirm" my account threw my email. In the email i got, it said to click on the link, and sign in......wait a minute? i thought paypal and ebay never ask you to click a link and sign in? This was a email account i opened 5 mins ago, so its not spam. I noticed the link is to a site thats www.paypal.com/row.... etc... I was like shit!..im getting screwed here.

so i open a new browser, type in www.paypal.com and press enter. I make a compleatly new paypal account and hotmail account. Right when i press confirm on my paypal registration, "row" pops up in the URL





i didnt know what to do from there... in that browser i went to their help section and clicked on "paypal spam emails" ... and i got this. I knew something was up when i saw what it said.





I got a friend to go to www.paypal.com on their comptuer and go to the same help section. and this is what he sees on the REAL paypal website.





If i go www.paypal.com or www.paypal.com/row...its the same thing. i even tried something other then row and it still works? (i dont know if thats normal or not)





I followed Golks advice and getting some spyware software like Spybot and Ad-aware (found alot, go rid of it, some came back...uninstalled limewire and deleted some torent download programs...did the spyware check again, and non returned. I ran the spyware software in SAFEMODE) thanks golks, got rid of some stuff i never even knew was there, but not my problem.

Can someone help me out and tell me whats going on here?
