i dont think soOriginally Posted by stalin
i have an up to the minute virus scanner running at all time,
and i am here several times a day, for 2 to 3 hours at a time,
never, ever see a virus,
my account has NO special privileges when it comes to the popups because
WE dont control or own them,
the host does (and the host gets all the cash too - thats how they pay for the Org to have so much space on THREE servers and use so much bandwidth),
the script they demand we put on every page makes no distinction between members and staff.
also i dont have a popup stopper running and i i get very few popups
(and i am using IE browser)
but PLEASE if someone spots one asking for user name and password,
(something to do with bradford BBS???)
PLEASE get a screenshot for me,
that is one that is definately a NoNo and i want to ask the host to kill it.
as for virus hidden in the popups? - no.
The hosts would spot them when they surfed one of the sites - (the UGO network is huge),
AND there would be thousands of users from hundreds of website hosted by UGO screaming about them.
