Not really but I have been reading up them I noticed them on my computer. and then they stopped. I have a program that I have for my kids to make sure that they don't go where they shouldn't on the web. I can block web sites and chat rooms. All I know I was reading up on them and was told they might be bad.

hey PC thanks for the link. that answered my question...I guess that was my anti virus programs doing their job. I have more than I really need but you can never be too careful. I do have a very good fire wall "zone alarm" so I just have to do alittle extra work to decide whats good and whats bad. Thanks again for the link.. glenmar11
