Who would have thunk porn would be in last
Which parts of the site? I’ve been messed with by sites I’ve visited safely for years, but one of their ads were the culprit. would that count as the “site” being the issue?
+1 @bubbatie1
Why would anyone trust anything from Symantec????
@ bubbatie1 and the doorkeeper
It is not last, it is tenth, there is a big difference. :)
the porn was a shocker, last. Shoo
Porn, tenth…. thank god
@steven – no, it is not a big difference – only 2.4% of porn sites, about the same difference between business and shopping. (yes, I know what you meant, but 2.4% is not a lot, esp. if you look at how many there are) [I'm assuming there are a lot :-) ]
Every one of us agree about one Thing. PORN was Last? Hallelujah!
Is this a sales pitch from Symantec? You need to buy our bloated overpriced software because as you see you need us to protect you if you visit blogs and personal sites.
Way to go guys! It’s more dangerous to to read trash about Business and Economy than simply forget your worries by watching porn. In fact finally the truth is out Sex is better than reading about Health & Medicines
Yes!!! It seems like BEER is Better than ICE CREAM !!!!!
Someone doesn’t know the difference between percent and percentage points. Reminds me of this: http://xkcd.com/985/
@ roger
i wasn’t on about the percentages, i was purely on about the difference between porn being tenth, not porn being in last place. there woul dbe many more categories underneath it…..
