Warning for IE users

I had FireFox last year but dropped it because it prevented me from accessing files i needed and kept shutting me down. I'll stick with IE, thank you. I've never had a reason to change.

Thanks for the heads up. I will try to fortify my PCs against this. One more reason to use an Apple - but that begins a whole new "theological" path that is a well rutted road.

For the techy types among you there is a way to use Windows and totally eliminate the malware threat while web surfing. You run your favorite OS and browser inside a virtual machine and web browse inside the VM. Any malware you encounter remains trapped inside the VM's guest OS and can't infect the host OS.

There are a number of free VM solutions out there and free OS's to run in them, or you can run Windows on Windows and pay MS an extra license. The truely paranoid restore a pristine copy of their VM just before their web surfing session so they know it's clean.
