No, asshole. When I click on a link you sent me and my virus software tells me there's a Trojan Horse on it (and therefore stops it from loading,) it does NOT make me "mean" when I refuse to click on it again.

Also, when I yell at you for this, the proper response is NOT "PMS?"

He's probably computer incompetent and thinks you're elitist for attempting to pretend you could possibly know his link is unsafe. If he did believe you, he'd decide you were just a nerd for knowing that anyway.

And decry all responsibility.

This is why, on some very rare occasions I enjoy watching malware stampede through sheep, reaping their destruction at every turn.

You know, he DID also say, "oh well your software is goofed ... there's no viruses for this site, I already scanned it"

Sure there aren't, buddy.

At this point "who's right" depends 100% on whether the site is actually virus infected.

[koemiko]

Whether it's virus infected or not, it's something trivial, and if I'm warned against it by my anti-virus software I'm going to assume Avast! knows something I don't.

But, if you wanna check, Orgasm Calculator?

"Of the 4 pages we tested on the site over the past 90 days, 4 page(s) resulted in malicious software being downloaded and installed without user consent. The last time Google visited this site was on 06/02/2008, and the last time suspicious content was found on this site was on 06/02/2008.

Malicious software includes 4 trojan(s), 1 worm(s). Successful infection resulted in an average of 13 new processes on the target machine."

I'd say you're right on this one

[koemiko]

Holy crap!

What did you use to find that out?!

That's the advantage of running reasonably recent versions of your software =p Firefox 3 is good, get it.
