(God, I've really GOT to quit watching so much damn NASCAR--it's creeping into my vocabulary too.)
Anyway. Over to the right, in my Blogroll, is one of my favorite sites: Reality News Online.
In the background, as I write this, my computer is scanning itself for adware after I was attacked by a trojan--for the third time this week. Finally I pinned it down: whatever happens, happens within seconds of clicking on Reality News Online. Three times now I've spent hours offline while my computer runs its virus scans; then three times I've run my adware-remover programs and followed all their recommendations.
I e-mailed them--they're good guys--and they said "yeah, we've had a couple reports of this, but we only use 2 ad companies, and they're both reputable and have no history of problems like this. We're working on figuring it out...."
In the meantime, I'll be getting my recaps from nice, safe, Television Without Pity. (Unless I'm on my nice, safe, work Mac...but with my task load this week I don't see myself having time to surf.)
Be forewarned, gang--and it pains me to say this--but click on the RNO link at your own risk.
There's a special place in hell for these adware-producing balls of monkey-spunk...
