Don't click that ad--MALWARE's massive impact
 
Just like with any system, it's all a numbers game.

More than 10 billion online ad impressions served up in 2010 carried malware, according to recent research from Online Trust Alliance. The organization, dedicated to establishing best practices for ensuring data privacy and security online, argues that delivery of ads transferring malicious code could be prevented if ad networks and other ad third parties took care to know their business partners.

Yes this is a big problem. That's why at JuicyAds, we carefully screen each client individually who wants to start CPM campaign (where they can use javascript, iframe, Flash).

Honestly,

I don't surf the web anymore.....not really.

I'm so afraid of messing up my computer that I need for business that
I just stopped surfing.

The main reason I'm on GFY is because it's like one out of maybe 50 sites that
I will surf.

I feel like I'm taking a chance every time I click a link and this has got to be hurting
this biz if others do the same.

I don't even click the first link from a google search without checking the domain
first.

It's killing my web experience, but I can't go through the mess that's created with
some of these viruses.

the real fun of 'mobile' malware hasn't even started. the speed of social networking + mobile devices = malware of mass destruction.

Sadly, this is true.
