What is a Gravatar anyway?
We’ve told you about Gavatars before!
A gravatar is a “Globally Recognized Avatar” or little square picture that is associated with your email address. In many blogs, forums and websites your gravatar shows up when you post a comment to an article or post. It can be a picture of you, a logo, or anything else you want to represent yourself. They are not used on all blogs or sites but they are growing in popularity and you will see them more and more. Getting your own is very easy. Just go to www.gravatar.com and register for a free account. You can even assign gravatars to multiple email addresses. You just upload a picture and crop out the image you want to use and your done. You can even upload a picture taken with your webcam. Sites with support for gravatar will now show the image you have chosen when you post your comments.
Antivirus 2010 is Bad Stuff!
We have serviced quite a few computers lately infected by Antivirus 2010 Malware. It started as a simple looking pop up while browsing common websites.
This is a nasty, rogue anti-spyware program that displays totally false security messages to trick users into purchasing a full version of Antivirus 2010 software. Antivirus 2010 was designed by Russian hackers to steal your money and install even more malware. Antivirus 2010 is a rogue anti-spyware scanner that can seriously damage your PC. Once you are tricked into clicking the Antivirus 2010 deceptive ads, you’re taken to a purchase page where you are prompted to download the Antivirus 2010 software. Antivirus 2010 will hijack your browser, display fake security warnings, and slow your computer to a crawl.
