too right, and well, *I* don't ever go to p@rn sites or anything like that, oh no, but I suspect that a fair percentage of the posters here do, and any number of sites that *all* have ways of trying to get spyware onto your system.
To the poster, *other* people *use* the internet, the "none here" poster clearly only views sites from a list of regulated safe sites. I might randomly trawl 500 sites a day looking for *something* or *nothing*, but in doing that I might hit on some interesting information that may lead me somewhere else. I'm not a monk, using the internet isn't a case of "Radioactive Material, approach with Caution", don't give us that Holier-Than-Thou cr@p about "when will people learn" (which pretty much equals, "nya nya, I'm better/smarter than you dum shmucks").
Fact : spyware is around, maybe not on large reputable sites, but when you trawl the internet, searching or messing around or *enjoying* the internet, then you will come across it ... obviouly not if you are the poster of this thread, who is Perfect, and may in fact be the Second Coming I suspect, but for other lesser *normal* mortals, it's there, so simple safe precautions make sense ... put suntan lotion before you go for a walk in Death Valley huh ... and use anti-virus / anti-spyware before you go on the internet ... simple sensible precaution ??
