Warning

You might be interested to know that your browser is infected with adware/spyware/trojan diallers.  The adware and spyware may be collecting personal information or be responsible for unwanted popups, and announces itself to web sites allowing unscrupulous sites to abuse your browser and your machine.  The trojan diallers cause dial-up users to connect unsuspectingly to premium rate modem numbers.  If you are experiencing excessive or offensive pop-ups or drastic slow-downs in your web browsing this is almost certainly why, and you need to get it removed.  This is a genuine warning and most definitely not a joke.  Nor is it an advert, but you are strongly advised to clean up the problem or get the advice of someone who can.

The 2 infections your browser is announcing are:

  1. Sgrunt|V109|1727|S-396886427|dial (dialler)
  2. snprtz|S04060317362522 (dialler)

Unintentional comedy from Micro$oft

Fresh in from the BBC: "A senior executive at Microsoft says that its new operating system, Vista, will be its most secure yet."

Given the (lack of) security and integrity inherent in all previous Windoze products, that's not actually saying a whole heck of a lot.
