If you don't already have Malwarebytes <https://www.malwarebytes.org/> I'd suggest you download and install at least the free version. It's a very effective malware killer.

      I seriously doubt that Smugmug had anything to do with it.  Facebook and 
evilBay are the traditional sources for piggyback intrusions.  I have 
experienced hit-and-run viruses by way of images on evilBay, but nothing 
recently.  This is an entirely new bent on the intrusion problem.

      The question that comes to mind is this:  If these softwares are of any 
redeeming value, why do they have to resort to clandestine means to install 
them?


I see that sometimes with my earlier images as
I guess they are archived but recent images always load quickly, for me
at least.


      I had noticed in recent weeks that dialup performance was unusually slow 
despite a 40K connection and the activity indicator was flashing even when I 
shut down the browser.  The hampered connection with Smugmug while on wifi was 
probably due to the clandestine downloading activity.
