[edit] Virus or not a Virus?

Though it appears to spread like a virus, it lacks the clean design and solid, elegant coding which is commonly associated with viruses.

Internet Explorer will eat your children, no questions asked.

Also if Javascript is enabled, any website can hack your computer with things like making Over 9,000 pop up windows. Or disabling mouse buttons and keyboard buttons so when you click them they don't work and it says, "Don't steal my pictures" -- if the later ever happens you just got hacked. As a public service, you must turn Javascript off and then steal every one of the pictures from sites like this. (Or you could always highlight it and press CTRL+C, to save you the trouble of finding where the option is in Internet Explorer's crappy layout)
