I do not, however I do notice that the siteadvisor plugin marks it as yellow, which means potentially unsafe. However, my belief is that this is due to some kind of false positive.
Asker's Rating:
• I log in and occassionally, the browsers starts numerous launches. Do you think it is javascript associated with my login only?

I'm suspicious that the member profile section may allow user javascript references. Is it possible that the profile could have a linked Javascript reference embedded that actives popup windows? I have had Mahalo cause windows to popup in rapid sequence. It may have been after adding a friend.

Can members embedded a linked javascript reference in the member profile?

Nope... not I. I only get those when getting on the porn websites.

Too much information?

No, I have McAfee which often warns me about bad websites and it has never warned me about Mahalo.
