Btw you should probably read up on spyware prevention and have Mozilla Firefox as the default browser (or any browser other than IE, for that matter). If other people use your computer and aren't pros you might want to take steps to limit their abilities (ie. guest account or something? I'm not very familiar with that area of windows, since I'm the only one who uses my rig and I don't need to protect it from anyone).
Yeah, normally I never let other people touch my computer because they somehow get tons of spyware in .5 seconds…
Well, Jessica used my computer while I was away for 2 weeks and was able to use all my notepad paper to write down her latino friends she found online, fill up my trash can from empty, mess with my clean room, install ~30 printers, roughly 20+ pieces of software, and so much spyware you couldn't shake a stick at it.
I was pissed; still am >_<
