Exactly. Believe it or not, but there are A LOT of online idiots and morons out there that when something comes up and says "you've won a prize" or "you've got 3 new messeges!", they actually believe it and click on the damn thing.

I saw my mom do that once and I was like "mom, you dont REALLY have messeges."

Yeah, this makes me very angry also, but like Canyarion said, in a matter of no time, they'll have triple anti software.

But what happens then? do they build quadrouple anti software? Is it a constant battle between popup blockers and popup blocker blockers?
