And don't forget your booties because it's cold out there today.

imdb.com/title/tt0107048

It's cold out there every day.

Edited since the link was generating a lot of popups in IE. I have no idea why it was doing that, and I didn't do anything different from how I've posted links before.

You are an asshole. I just spent the last fifteen minutes closing down a whole bunch of fucking Internet Explorer windows that kept popping up -- nine at a time. Take this fucking link down before you get other people mad at you.

And don't fucking talk to me for a while, OK?

It's popping up a bunch of windows? I entered an ordinary IMDB link the same way I always do. Sorry if it did something weird.

It wasn't the way you entered the link, it was the code on the other side of the link that kept executing. I had 20+ IE windows open at one point.

This wasn't just "weird", I would call it malicious. And yes, I realize that you didn't know it was going to do that.

And thanks for putting up the warning.

However the ads are described, they still made me seem like a jerk for thinking IMDB was reputable/competent enough to prevent them from appearingvon its pages.

My apologies for blowing up at you this morning; I was mad at the situation more than you and I'm sorry that I called you an asshole. You've always been a good friend and I really shouldn't have gotten that upset.

No permanent harm appears to have been done to my laptop, for which I'm very thankful.

I was confused, but it was an understandable reaction. That advertising technique is annoying and a potential vector for malware.

No permanent damage is a huge relief.

Ouch ..

No offense but why do you use IE?

The web program that USC uses (as well as other websites) works better in IE than it does in Firefox. I have Firefox on my desktop and IE on my laptop.

I'm glad to hear that you were relatively immune to this!

This issue has since been resolved. I apologized to Brian out of the deep respect and friendship that I have for him; nothing more needs to be said.

Appreciate the tip. Hopefully there won't be a next time.

Yeah I'll agree , the page was a popup generator but thankfully I was using my beloved firefox.

Thanks for putting a warning though ^^

And groundhog day :P

I don't really care about it.

Seems to be a very american thing :)
