Twice now some jerk has put malware on this site. Fortunately my Security Essentials (kept up to date on my PC) has kept me from having problems with it. I have contacted "the authorities" about it, but meanwhile, DO NOT CLICK ON ANY SUSPICIOUS ITEMS HERE, ESPECIALLY ANIMATED "YOU HAVE MAIL", "DOWNLOAD", "PLAY NOW", "DOWNLOAD FAILED", ETC. IN THE TOP BAR AREA!

Now there is a bunch of different items that appear in the top bar. I think they may all be malware, viruses, Trojan horses, whatever. Don't click on ANYTHING there! But even with following my own advice, Trojan horses twice tried to infect my computer from the site (I was saved by up-to-date Windows Security Essentials).

It's not uncommon for Advertisements to hide malware in them.
I use the AdBlockPlus and NoScript addons for Firefox, and don't even see the ads, much less have problems with them.
I don't bother with Internet Explorer. Using that is just going around begging for viruses.
I can provide download links for anyone who needs either of these addons.

I prefer Internet Explorer for the way it formats text in emails and Internet newsgroup posts (simply, without HTML). Since I have Windows 7 Security Essentials and the firewall is always turned on, I do not get computer infections (but I do see when they try to get in, but they are quarantined...).
