There is no connection between that site and the malware (as verified by
Spybot and Adware), but after clicking on the link, I did start to melt.

It's a connection problem, just like most of our customers. Always
looking for the complicated answer. I have spent the last 15 years
dealing with spam, dos attacks, smurfs, viruses, fraudulent
transactions, etc.. There is nothing wrong with the page, Joe don't
know what he don't know... But he will swear to it and avoid the logic
at all cost...

You're right. If you notice that a web site may be exhibiting suspicious
behavior, you could ignore it completely and go get a cup of coffee.- Hide quoted text -

No, I just blame global warming and trust my data and software/
hardware tools. It was either a connection problem or just more of
your lies

you're a serious fruitloop, yukyuk

Hey javawizard - explain what takes so long to load at that page.

Um..nothing? Loaded fine - no problems. Nothing I haven't seen
before, although there was one nifty link to that large Maersk image
which was pretty cool.

Firewall didn't chirp, Norton didn't go off, images are clean and the
links are as posted.

What's the problem? I'll admit it - I don't know what you are talking
about.

1) Stalled my browser for an unusually long period of time - had to shut
it down via task manager.
2) Web connection was not the issue
3) Same site posted in another group with a similar subject line
4) Sender: javawizard

Suspicious behavior should never be ignored, unless your computer is a
throwaway you can do without for a period of hours or days. Glad you
finally got through.

No "suspicious" behavior from that site on this end.


You didn't see the black helicopters zoom across as the page was loading?

Are you saying that might have been a mosquito in my house?

No way.

Or fix your computer, or call your ISP.

You should post that at least five times.

Why not visit the site?

No time to explain. Try it if you don't trust my advice. But, be sure
you
have a spare computer so you can come back & tell us what happened.

No time to explain? That's a good one Doug. You are on line posting
all day and most of the night.

Meanwhile a whois search will give you the name, address and phone
number of Mr. Napier, who owns the domain, which he registered
yesterday. Take it up with him.

Did you click the link? If so, what happened? What did you find? How long
did it take for the page to load?

Yes, the page loaded, various pictures of big things, three seconds.

Any more questions?

No, but:

1) When you've got a nice fast connection and a page behaves suspiciously,
you have to be an idiot to not be very careful, especially if your computer
generates your income.

2) You have to be an idiot to put huge content on a home page, rather than
provide just thumbnails and links on the page, so users have a choice in
what happens next. All good web designers know this. None disagree with it.- Hide quoted text -
