I forgot this also, for Popups you should have this blocked this would of helped alot of FF users if they had this turned on.
Tools, Options then Content
Where its says pop up blockers, just put a check mark into that.
Guess it must be me that I have never been caught with an online malware or trojan flyby as I keep up with things, but you don't expect the average person to know all the crap that is out there, and believe me its increasing
Last to date 1,000 infected websites and growing daily, its up to the admins of the pages to be up to date with all the modules and coding the use. Its a daunting task, so don't blame renderosity, its happens to loads of sites even the security ones get caught with their pants down once in a while lol.
But as for IFRAME eploits if this one was one, then that is not good as it was first reported in 2004, no excuse to not have this plugged up. For Windows XP Users you better be running at Least SP2 for this trojan not to infect your pc, but from what I can see in other Forums for Trojan and malware reporting seems allot of people take online browsing as a joke.
And on a happy note, the rate of infection for Malware and Trojans on Warez sites and P2S has increased 80%, so I am happy for these people serves them right.
The only reason I know a bit more than the average person is I report the nasty bugs day in day out. People are totally unaware how dangerous it is online.
