ShadowAce a question please. Have been seeing strange dialog boxes on various websites. Have not seen those strange dialog boxes on Jim's website and know Jim runs a tight ship along with the IT people at this site. My commendations! During your website travels is seeing strange dialog boxes on various other websites becoming a normal? Have noticed in the last few day several websites have been going through what appears to be a purge and clean. Also, want to pick your brain. Prior to 911 were there an extreme number of hacks and dangerous oddities floating on the web as is currently occurring?
I only allow scripts to run a very trusted websites, and never on newly discovered ones. I don't see ads I don't want, and and not nervous about visiting new sites, because I know they can't run scripts without my permission.
I blacklist as many ad services sites as I run into, and several google ad services as well.
With all this tightened down, I rarely--if ever-- see the same issues other people have complained about.
