I do have a little chuckle to myself when site have popups which are meant to look like old windows 95 dialog boxes. They looked silly enough back when I has a windows XP box let alone on a Mac.

I mean seriously, are there actually people stupid enough to fall for those things?

Trust me - I've spent countless hours answering the question 'How come you say I only have one virus when <$MALWARE> says I've got 6000?'

Eh? :?
That page tries to install an ActiveX trojan of some sort, making out that you've got viruses on your machine. I was scrolling down the page and it suddenly appeared.

Edit: Ah, already answered :)
