| I get tracking cookies every now and then, so over the past year would have to be way more than 5. That's about it though...

| I put one (think it was 2005 - may have been 2004) when I downloaded and installed a program recommended here a long time ago. It looked decent but packed within was a parasite program. Just went over to Doxdesk.com, identified the parasite and removed it. It was actually easy to remove it once identifed. Returned a reply to the thread it was in and left a warning about it. Edit: Hmm? Come to think about it now: 0, it was 2004! |
