Petunia's upset with me because of the way I handled it..but dang, it was evil took over my computer. I don't like pop-windows or auto linking to websitse I didn't ask for. Webpages from other sites, (like on www.bored.com) hidden within frames are a pet peeve too. My daughter had no idea she was visiting dozens of sites..some of them attempted to download the gator software numerous times. My spybot search and destroy program finds it all of the time. GRRRR But other times, guess who has to manually fix the computer. ME.

Kim, most folks are ignorant of the spyware and other invasive software involved in these sites. And I'm with you....I keep spybot and spyblaster, zone alarm, and norton updated and running constantly. And I see what is trying to invade and track me. If folks don't have these programs, I sure do recommend they get them.
