I have had spyware installed from a drudge advertiser several times. I live on drudge so I had to apply extra precautions to prevent it.

The government tells who you are allowed to access online, Catholics being arrested at Notre Dame, the Fed firing CEO’s...where will the line be drawn until critical mass of us stop it! We are getting closer to China everyday.

Same here. Drudge's site auto refreshes and that is when you can pick up spy-ware. My Avast gave me a pop up the other day saying it had detected a Trojan type that was in the process of downloading. Avast stopped it but I had to reset the alert before the pop up could clear the screen. I always go to Drudge and the fact spy-ware or ad-ware or even a Trojan is a possibility, I would still go to Drudge for important news updates.
