Moral of the story....your mental health isn't the only thing at risk when visiting the DUmp. I'll keep an eye of this. Surprising that there wasn't any public notification (to my knowledge) from the administrators of DU when the site was first exploited.

So....Mr. Dorkio's radioactive?

I remember Fat Che used to do that too.

He was indeed.  :loser:

Yeah, during the Scamdal back in 2005, Fat Che was putting up some Andyite web-sites, hoping decent and civilized people promoting open and honest fund-raising would go to them.

We were told how to get around it, but I wasn't paying attention, and so I just didn't go to those sites.

Fat Che also used to "plant" something in his avatar on Skins's island.

You know, if I was a primitive, I'd be really nervous about other primitives, especially the primitives somewhat more advanced technologically than other primitives.

Being a nice guy, having a moral obligation to protect the stupid and the vulnerable from injury, I've always taken pains to caution primitives about this primitive or that primitive up to no good.

I've always resented it that the primitives don't trust franksolich.

I've had Google give me warnings for this site before but it was only on one thread that had some links on it.

My, my, we're having a lot of "visitors" to this thread.

I understand your concern. Nefarious activity is the raison d'être of many a DUmmie.

You got it.

I remember I constantly warned the Fat Samoan Queen on Skins's island against Fat Che, showing her how he was collecting her data and information, possibly for use in blackmail.

The Fat Samoan Queen however ignored me; she didn't like me, but was infatuated with Fat Che.

Well.....that was a long while back.

One wonders what ever happened to the Fat Samoan Queen, who isn't around Skins's island any more.

The primitives really should listen to franksolich; he's a nice guy.

I got two different types of malware from visiting the DUmp two days ago. 

This isn't the first time, either.

Can only go from bad to worse in DUmor Land. Thanks for the warning DUtroll. I can't help but ask myself why one would attempt to visit a DUer's profile unless very skilled, and knowledgeable about these things.

Still, this thread raises a bit of awareness.

Thanks for the heads up. I will avoid DU period, not just for its insanity, but malware crap. I hate dealing with malware.  :argh: Why do they allow malware at DU and do they know about it?

One shouldn't be afraid to go to Skins's island itself.

One should however, never go to any primitive's personal web-site--in this case, ESPECIALLY Mr. Dorkio's web-site--that's linked on Skins's island.

I've always been leery of Mr. Dorkio; the first thing that pops into one's mind when thinking "Mr. Dorkio," is "criminal mentality."

Not to take away from you advice, Frank, but if it were me...I'd just avoid any DUmp shit's profile period. Who knows what you'll run into.

I wont browse the DUmp with anything less than a well armored Linux system. But then again, I rarely browse anything anymore with anything but a well armored Linux system.

I just...stopped using internet explorer. Too much potential for total computer death.
