hi preston

i remember that only too well

i was a complete nohoper

but i loved it virus or not

and some how some one was looking after me

as it wasnt until i thought i new every thing i got my first virus

because i trusted some one.

im a bit better now as i have most safety features

installed and i try to surf safe

no illegal music

now porno site.

but you are right it was fun then

Nice way to get lost on the WWW. I'm one who goes somewhere with a purpose and gets lost for hours following links and "other" subjects. Funny how a left turn can be executed with three right turns.

hi preston. I ran spybot s&d the other night and it said that stumbledupon.com left a toolbar on my computer and a registry entry. spybot recognizes it as a baddie. let me know if you find anything. thanks.

let me edit this: I'm not sure if it was spybot, adaware, or asquare...anyway it said it was a no-no.

I foud nothing with Spybot, ewindo, A aquared, or Adaware. I have this PC locked down pretty tight so this may not be a indication of safty. I will with draw the link if it is a potential hazard. I thought mindless surfing from time to would be theraputic. sorry.

Ahhhh, I'ma guessing our router has a lot to do with blocking baddies. AdAware, of course flags MRU's. But no problem here with it.

Doesn't matter to me though. I surf where I wanna... If I get in trouble it's because I clicked a stupid link. I might mention, I have NEVER had malware that Avast free didn't flag, and all the others just scan and smile at me.

hi bear skin some times scanners wil inturprit

appli as a threat

for example

my son gave me a wipe disk

to clean a hdd

but before i used it i tried it on my sys so i could read it

and as soon as i opened it

avg called it a baddie

wel i backed tracked

and found av scanners

will call any threat to your sys a baddie when it wasent

but you have a good sys when it warns you

nothing wrong with that
