Didn't mean to sidetrack the thread - which is about Malware & the consequences to FTers computers - by my asking about the single post thing.

Thanks for all the input everyone. And nope, hadn't checked out the thread about tips & tricks cuz I rarely visit Tech Issues. Looks pretty handy really, so thanks for the heads up! Too bad it's buried in a forum that I would guess 99% of FTers don't get to. Perhaps FT could move it to a dif forum or the everything you need to know about FT but were afraid to ask section of the site?

And back OT - wonder if IB isn't responding publicly re: the Malware cuz they could be held more accountable if someone's computer got fubar'd? That's a lot worse than exposing someone to porn. No idea, but just a thought. As others have said, while it might be possible to get Malware from other websites, etc, I think the others (such as the Amazon example) would step up to the plate faster.

Cheers.
