MySpace
How many adults out there have created a myspace just because? I have due to my children living away from me and also finding old classmates believe it or not. For a year I kept saying it was for kids but in reality there are just as many adults out there as there are kids on myspace.

I worry about my children on line
Quote:
logging on and seeing photos and personal info. I know you cant log on unless..... but hackers can get into most anything they would like. Caution is the word with this new myspace. I am sure it has its good points but our children are just that children. Personal photos on line "NOT" ! To each his or her own as a adult but I know there are some very bad folks out there so Scarlett enjoy but caution too. |

Myspace
Myspace seems to be the launching point for most of the zero-day exploits people keep finding in Windows. I wouldn't even consider pulling up a myspace page. We completely block the entire site at work.

However, for someone with just a fraction of common sense, Myspace doesn't pose any threat to your PC what so ever... Here's a link to mine, but be sure to turn your volume as loud as it will go prior to clicking the below image. Last edited by BrainSmashR; 05-11-2007 at 06:58 AM. Reason: spelling |

"The inexperienced PC user" is the category that covers 99% of all office workers.
Also, Myspace is where that GDI cursor bug showed up in the wild a last month. There is absolutely nothing experience could have done to protect you if you were using IE, MS didn't patch it for a couple of weeks. There have been a few others like that, as well. |

I have a myspace account, but I never use it. I haven't posted anything on it. I just use it for contacting other myspace users on rare occasions.
As for me, I'm a very savvy computer user. There is really very little myspace can do for me that I can't do on my own webspace. Moreover, there are a TON of things I can do on my webspace that Myspace will never have.

Actually there is a VERY SIMPLE solution that covers every existing, potential, and future threat posed to IE users.....It's called Firefox and I highly recommend you switch browsers as soon as possible. |
