This is what I saw when I logged in to my orkut account
Based on your orkut activity, it appears that one of the computers that you use to access orkut has been exposed to a virus or a spyware. Please install Google Pack to remove the malicious code from your computer. Google Pack is free and includes Norton Security Scan and Spyware Doctor

I open orkut using Firefox on Fedora or Opera Mini on mobile. So no chance of virus in computer. Something wrong with Orkut or OperaMini servers?

Now it has become a regular feature. Every 2nd time I open my homepage, it is shown. I think I will have to get used to that, considering the number of related posts at orkut forum
