This is the most clever idea I’ve seen for a while. A malware that acts like an antivirus software is great idea for anyone who want to harm other web users. But it is difficult not to fly into this trap. I don’t know if I would. Maybe not, but sometimes everyone is close to become a target for some hacker, cracker or spammer. And sometimes our shields are lowered so the surprising attack can be devastating.

Pop-ups are a nuisance and the last thing I would do is to down something just because they said I needed it.

These things are a BIG problem for average web surfers. Sure bloggers and webmasters know better and never click on them but my kids and my mother will click anything without reading it first.

I like how they used (recommended) after the question. It’s a nice touch that’ll surely get them more “users” but well at least it’s not destructive.

read it fully is great. researching, as some one had mentioned,is an amazingly good idea. there are people out there, and there always have been, and there always will be, that are doing these things. i’m not completely sure, but i think they are making money off this whole deal.

I suppose then if that is the case they will have to learn the hard way. I’ve always taught my kids not to just click anything without reading it fully, especially if it occurred while they were surfing the net.

Maybe it does but I can easily imagine local restrictions that would make everything more difficult for everyone. For instance our government had a great idea about a year back that all the ISPs should record and store all data transfer taking place by their customers for a period of a couple om month. Totally ridiculous and luckily it didn’t go through.

Yes, but that would require international co-operation on a scale that I just can’t see happening. We’re all too busy trying to blow each other’s heads off!

We couldn’t agree more on the censorship part, but I can’t see how we’re heading anywhere else but that direction with more and more phising, spamming and trojans invading our privacy every single day. I believe that spam is up to about 80-85% of the total emails sent…
