I started ignoring those links about a year and a half ago. Smart move - as some have been reported to contain viruses, CP, etc... Dangerous stuff.]]>Jul 9th 2009 10:21AMhttp://www.switched.com/2009/07/09/spammers-discover-url-shorteners/http://www.switched.com/2009/07/09/spammers-discover-url-shorteners/
I never click on 'hidden' links. Good idea; as it turns out, many of the links are to virus-infested websites, CP (disturbing and VERY illegal- even accidental wandering onto a site with it could merit a lot of jail time), and a ton of other crap nobody wants to get or see (goatse, anyone?)...

Just be smart about browsing; it's not that difficult to realize whats real and whats not.]]>Jul 9th 2009 11:03AM
