Typos cause viruses
« on: January 05, 2012, 10:08:53 AM »
Yesterday I tried coming here but I accidentally typed .conm instead of .com and apparently the website it linked to has viruses.

Luckily I hit the back button just in time and my avast protected me from the virus.

Just tried it, and I can't get it (I run Linux, so the virus won't afflict me)
Hopefully taken down?

never mistype an internet address, that is probably the best way to get a virus.
