You know what?
This is beginning to scare me.
Really.
Yeah, and this is just one little forum, there are probably thousands of others just like it around the world that are getting hit just like us.

So I hate to mention this, but how do you keep the site from targeting your personal computer, Blaze? 

My son once downloaded a tiny female stripper and his system never worked properly again.  Yeah, I was snooping on his computer.  I thought it was a sort of cute teen boy thing until it started crashing.  Hit my pocket book and I become a monster...  machine guns and everything...

Most of the sites I don't check out, because they are obvious from the addies...  one of two have had unsafe code, but my virus protection has smacked it down.  And I purge everything after a session, the cookies and so forth.  Oh, and I do it on the old laptop, just in case. 

That plus having a son who is a total wonk, and I am practicing safe webz.

Thank you for caring, Meg.

It really infuriates me that porn sites do this.  You would think that they got enough hits from the fact that you can't web search Mather Theresa without a hundred of them popping up.

I remember once I transposed two letters in myspace and got porn.

It wasn't even porn I would look at either, so it was doubly irritating.

What can I say?

I like to make the best of a bad situation, but they robbed me of the chance.

I went to Juniata College as an undergrad.  There was a time when juniata.edu took you to the college website and juniata.com took you to a porn site.  I think they've rectified the situation since.

It's amazing what they will do for hits.

I'd call them attention whores, but...seems kind of redundant.

I told a friend about the Dickblick.com website, for art supplies.  Well she typed in dickflick....  LOL
