Get rid of flash. Just recently one of its biggest vulnerabilities yet was revealed, I don't know but this might have something to do with it.

I still have flash on my system because I'm stupid. Don't be like me.

Ok nevermind, looks like the AH forums tried to do the same thing to me right after I disabled flash in my browser.

I dunno, we need Skuzzy.

Think I figured it out. When someone embeds a youtube video in their post like in icepac's rock is dead thread, the browser tries to use flash to play it. But because I disabled flash, it tries to download some file instead.
