I don't fancy spending the next month trying to get librarian out of the carpet.

Calli: My people have a saying. A man who trusts can never be betrayed, only mistaken.Avon: Life expectancy among your people must be extremely short.

One of the four Tilda Swinton androgy links posted managed to slip a popup past firefox 1.01 with popup blocking enabled, adblocker installed, and javascript limited to the max you can without disabling it (which will be my next step).

The popup was one of those endless loop windows that you have to use task manager to shutdown. It was trying to install some sort of malware.

I'm going to pack to posts 1655 and 1657 to figure out which one tried it. OK - did not get a popup again but this digitalhit site loads different ads everytime it is refreshed, so probably digital hit is the site that tried to slip something on. I am going to run a quick spyware scan just to be on the safe side, but I'm pretty sure that having turned off the ability web sites to install software in firefox provides some protection.

You know when you've been holding for what feels like forever, and they keep replaying the "we apologize for the delay yadda yadda" message? They really do not need to play said message in 15 second intervals. No, not exaggerating. May become homocidal soon.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Gah. Sorry.

I had no trouble with Firefox, but that's probably because I hit those sites with a Mac.

eta: Currently I'm using Firefox 1.0 on a Mac with OS X 10.3.8 with the latest security stuff.

I went back and removed the naughty link.
