Bad News Site

I came across another malicious web site. Only this one can not be closed by using Alt-F4. You must use your Task Manager.

Do not under any circumstance click on anything on your browser when you get a page like this. It locks you out from closing it no matter what you click and it can auto load if you lick on anything on your browser, because you give permission without knowing.

The last time I ran into a site like this it loaded some kind of silent bomb. It went off when I was running security and maintenance checks while off-line. It destroyed over 40 gigs of info on 2 drives that I could eventually read and destroyed a whole drive with another 100 gig of info. To cap it off it damaged hard-wear on my mother board forcing me to buy a new system.
