Hate IE.

If you have the basics covered, you actually have to give permission for the bugs to get in. I think that is what a lot of folks do, biting on any number of lures.

You're correct. Some people click on every email attachment sent to them. Ugh.

I received my first pop-up ad on Mozilla today. Hope it was a straggler but there it was after 4 months of being pop-up free.

did you innoculate with Spypot?

That is a thing that keeps the same old same old that you remove from getting back in.

"Opera here."

Opera is far superior to IE.

Yes I sure did .it took me a couple times of using the software to get the hang of all it does,but I figured it out. I just use the alternate browser and find it much more enjoyable to surf:0

I am running the beta version of SP2 right now. Love it.

I am wholeheartedly sick of these fricking updates slowing my computer. This one is what...9.2 M??? Great. I'm really looking forward to downloading this sucker via dial-up. :P
