Jaded_Goth;

You're welcome! That kiss got a little ephemeral by the time it arrived, but it was still nicest thing to happen to me so far today! Wink

Your concern over browser hijackers is valid, to say the least. Sadly, if you warn your viewers of such potential, then you have indeed "caved in" to the mongrel dogs that usurped your sister sites. This would also "tar" with the same brush you, your site, your boss, your company, yadda yadda yadda. How long would it take for you to recover that lost good will? 'Far too long' is the correct answer.

I don't know what kind of website(s) you are running, but if there is a possibility of leading your viewers to a page about security/safety, still on your own site of course, then you might wanna chat up this option with El Bosso. It wouldn't hurt, in that it shows you are concerned for your viewer's safety, but at the same time, you don't have to do anything more than write a simple page with some prose about security, maybe the current state of affairs (dismal), and several links for more info and proggies. I would think this wouldn't distract from your site's mission, but who knows how bosses think, eh? :P

BTW, just for your edification, we used to have a fella here who's favorite saying was "I practice safe hex - you should too". [lol]
