Webman, when logging on, getting forced to another online casino sites - DoubleDown Casino - and then to a Facebook sign in page in a separate window. Even when logged on as Gold, it pops up. Shows up as 'CTSRDA.Com"
I ran a complete virus scan, but nothing fell out. Running Win7, IE11.
** EDIT **
Only happens in IE11. Does not happen in Chrome browser.
Tracking cookie, maybe ?

Doubledown runs ads on the site when you aren't logged in. You sure you didn't click one of those by mistake? They would open a facebook page as you describe.

Webman, it was actually a browser hijacker that somehow got into one of my PCs. It tracks browser activity, which is why it probably shoved me to DoubleDown Casino.
The web had a process for removing it. Seems OK now.

I have a process too, for removal. First I'm going to beat your front door down with a sledge hammer and then I'll yank you out of bed by grabbing hold of your Brooks Brothers p.j.'s...
Oops, was channeling Randy Quaid in Caddyshack 2.
