Thumbs up

I agree Lord,

One of the things that I didn't see mentioned in that post was "malwares", well maybe in part. I'm taking aim at those who would misslead someone looking for music or music tabs in this case, delibertly name a file to intice someone and basically "infect" their system with malicious marketing software that is not only destructive but is even coded to circumvent current spyware removal and anti virus software. This unlike some of the other things mentioned is deliberate pointed to end users under false information and whether or not you want it .. you got it. There are things that go on that I would consider wrong, illegal and imoral yet, none of the porn, illegal warez etc, is pushed to you under false pretense to take control of your personal computer for someone elses financial gain. We all see the porn and warez .. it's a choice you personally can make, you know what the file is and what it contains. This is not the case I've seen more and more of lately. You're mislead into thinking the file contains something other then what it actually is and the end result is often harmful. Personally I just "blackwhole" their network on my system and thats easy to do with linux however, I know there are many more windows users out there that really don't have a simple option as I do. It's really a sucker punch at best. I will continue to post the names and IP's of all companies that make a practice of this unacceptable behavior in hopes that some of those peeps that have been duped will take the time to call or email the abuse addresses in an effort to discourage them doing this ON this network .. go do that crap on kaaza ... or IMESH.. sheesh .. I think I need to cut back on the coffee

Ringo ..
