IMHO = In my humble opinion

Don't you just hate it when someone has a pertinent piece of news and in order to view it you have to sign up and join in, exposing your net identity to yet another list that is possibly going to be used by nefarious types? A good friend sent an article about the aging of Windows and MacIntosh operating systems that was informative though not always precise. It was from Yahoo, a known bed of spyware. Claria, the dungheads (IMHO) that bring you Gator, Weatherbug, Precision Time and other spyware, adware, malware laced drivel (IMHO), proudly proclaims on their homepage that 31% of their income is generated by Yahoo. So, IMHO, Yahoo is a cyberwhore that is constantly trying to infect your PC with malware. Folks, IMHO, these people are evil!

While reading the article it was discovered that the Washington Post originated the story and they require a subscription. Okay, exactly why does the Washington Post want info about me? Yes, I do have several anonymous web "ids" and could use one of those. Do you? If you don't go over to the Yahoo and create several without giving them any real information and don't check ANY boxes. IMHO, they deserve the extra load. As a matter of fact go ahead and create 5 or 10. Screw Yahoo and the Washington Post...IMHO of course.

You can go to the DenverPost.com and read a good article about computer security. If you are easily frightened please take your anti-anxiety meds before reading this expose, especially if you are one of those people that never update anything, anytime, anywhere. Thanks to Slashdot for the heads up on a very informative article from a source (Denver Post) that is proud to let one browse their daily journalistic ventures.

Spyware is a Netizen's worst enemy. Please understand, that's IMHO.
