Make sure you've removed it from add ons if you're on a laptop or pc. Doesnt quite hack passwords, but fairly intrusive on privacy |

"Dashlane is a virus! Oops!
You have any antivirus on your laptop?"
It's actually not a virus...It a program that helps with online form filling but it's used to generate advertising. Has been known to be used to get personal information too. |

Virus was a layman term, malware if you're getting technical!!!
Best off removing all traces of it in any case OP! |

"Thanks lads. I got rid of it at the moment. Orbit uninstaller did the job, but might have to look closer at it tomorrow when my head isn't fried. Too tired now. "
I'll see if there's a good link that's easy to follow just in case. |

That one is a bit more complex, if mine doesn't work, then I'd do the more thorough deletion that you suggested. |

Also DH it might be useful to install AdBlock browser. Stops a lot of nonsense getting through but not all. Google are supposed to be adding similar functionality to Chrome soon but I don't think it's there yet. |
