Oh my, I had no idea cookies were so bad. I don't do a lot of surfing any more and only visit a couple of places but I suppose I am still at risk. Glad you are still up and running.
There is one thing I do, that is turning off the internet anytime i am not using it. I also have a password for my computer. i can peacefully put my computer to sleep all night long. I am so sorry you had so much trouble. I do have to admit that I could not help but laugh reading that your computer was talking sexy stuff.
I just meant embroidery sites with sweet designs! Like, all our usual favorites here!
