You will never stop these shady practices, as long as there are...
1.idiots who fall for phising emails
2.think it's safe to send banking information over unencrypted wireless connections
3.Think they can get free porn using an executable script/program someone they dont even know sent them
4.gah you get the point

MOST people are stupid and gullable I've come to realise that on my own through trying to figure out how banks make money : P.

Re:How to stop the evil internet!!!
 

banks, computer repair shops, mechanics.. pretty much every single profession makes money off of morons.

hard to find honest people.

are you going to be using IIS or apache on windows? i sure hope not ??? ...

i get absolutely ZERO spyware or viruses. however, i dont want to sound like a broken record as to why that is. *cough* ---- windows *cough*

Re:How to stop the evil internet!!!
 

spybot works awsome. I have used it for like a year now, and it has cleaned up so much, and takes care of alot of ----. it cleaned my moms computer out to an extreme.

Spybot is an awsome program, i would recommend it to anyone.

Re:How to stop the evil internet!!!
 

apache under windows right now. iam going to pick up a ---- box to run apache under unix sooner than later. is there something more secure apache under uni?x this is my first time

well you dont have to click yes or ok to anything anymore this ---- installs its self. iam a network administrator so i know not to click yes or ok to anything unless i activated the prompt. yes i do visit warez sites but they are only for serials so its not like downloading cracks with intergrated virus

you dont think you have spyware you just dont have one that is intrusive i bet if you run spybot and spywareblaster they will tell a different story.
