Well done Dave, I hadn't spotted that the link disappeared. Here's the URL for those that didn't see it yet...

I don't get it???? I opened the web page and it just says, " the end "

I don't trust this Paste URL anymore. Here is the link - you can copy and paste it to see the Very Funny Italian Driving website

And while I'm on, here's another Shockwave one you may find amusing

beware

i managed to connect to both web site url's and although they were a good laugh, the smile was wiped of my face when i discovered that they had infected my system with 27 spyware cookies.

now im not hugely knowlageable about cookies, but i believe the basics are this.

ordinary cookies are sent to your computer when you visit web sites. these cookies contain information that your system requires to enable it to display web pages in the way the designer of them intended it to look.

spyware cookies on the other hand, are sent to your computer to gather information about your computer and the way you use it. this information is then sent over the net every time you connect.

at best they will only send information about web sites you have visited. at worse they will gather information on spending habits, transaction details, and bank account details if you use on line banking etc.

the only way to stop them is to disenfect your system, or to delete all your cookies.
