How did it do that?!
Ok so I go to <http://one.revver.com/watch/194543> , and nothing happens when i click the video, of course, however....at the very end when a flash kind of ad comes up, and I clicked, my CD drive opens and my monitor shuts off. Whats going on? How can a flash application do that?! Please Reply, maybe i can use the code in some of my applications
idk if it works with Mozilla, I was using Internet Explorer (With flash player installed, of course), on a Microsoft Windows XP CPU |

As soon as I clicked the link I knew it. A quick run with my Adaware program and antivirus made me feel more comfortable.

Nothing more sinister, I promise you. And no doubt the techies' shared wisdom, although incomprehensible to me, is very useful to some people. Susan |
