I have a Macbook (about 6 months old) running V10.5.4 and Safari 3.1.2 Today was the 2nd time i've booted up and opened my browser and heard a message from nowhere "Congrats, you have won a macbook air". This concerns me as I know it is fake but how,when and where is this message coming from????

Please can anyone help, i've never heard of something like this on a mac. Keep in mind, i never download any 3rd party software and verified that I don't have anything on here that was not installed from Apple when I bought this laptop.

Is anyone else having this problem? Any idea's on how to correct this.

It's probably audio from a banner ad loading in Safari.
