Question

Spam Posts - Don't worry, just ignore & the mods will deal with it

Oh.. I see it's been dealt with.

See, if anyone ever questions the value of moderation ever again... I shall be very angry

    Couldn´t find a report button.
     First time I have seen real spam here. Cryptojacking from this spam site was a real possibility.

    the spam filter is very good... usually over sensitive, I guess it still has its exploits!

    I know all about that. Also im not stupid enough to even click those links.
     But you very well know a lot of others are.
     Just think of all the users blaming oculus for why their rift doesn´t work.

    Not saying it, might be thinking it, a lot of people think a PC is the same as owning a console.

    haha, so true. I have many friends who will blindly click a link and then call me asking why their pc/laptop no longer works as it did.

    I've always sang the praises of having decent internet security installed even though most people these days seem to think Windows Defender is enough.
    On a regular basis Defender isn't the software that alerts me to the wrong kind of web activity, then again, maybe I should stop wondering into the areas of the web where the street-lights aren't working.


    Like you say @KlodsBrik, I'm also starting to look at CPU use more often, just for comfort... it's not helping my paranoia.
