Thanks for the tips SL. I'm using adblock and noscript, generally I'm
pretty safe. Having been burned long ago, I'm always watching for .exes
and other malicious crap.
I may switch to Chrome. Really disliking FF's latest auto-update. It
nuked some of my user settings without prompting - rule 1 of upgrades is
"do not auto-nuke user settings". Such a rookie mistake. :|
