    I have just caught a virus from an Indian here on dp 5 days ago. The guy had 1.2k total posts when looking at his profile and had made a topic about how many Indians search for Indian type girls. He wrote around a paragraph and then included a link to his blog for further reading and as I'm pretty curious about how other people are doing on the internet i clicked on the link going to his blog. As soon as I clicked, my computer freezed for around 10 seconds and after I closed all my internet windows, my computer shut down just by itself! After I opened it again, I discovered that I had received a trojan - and I still have it unfortunately. My internet is all messed up, browser windows are randomly closing from time to time. I filed a report against him and posted on the same topic for people not to visit his blog but he's still not banned. Instead, they gave me a warning and 'bad reputation' for insulting him... And now I cannot register new things like domains, there might be a spy observing my computer. I will probably have to bring it to the store and they'l probably reformat it for 50 bucks... Its not that I don't like Indians but the english have conquered this world and gained my trust and admiration... long life to the english and Conservatives

    If you're reading a webmasters forum then I assume you are capable of virus checking your computer, or worst case reinstalling an OS, why would you need to give someone else $50 to do it?

    I hate asking for a link exchange request, because I get bombed with people who offer spammy sites and it gets so freaking annoying.
