In the middle of scanning my comp for spyware/viruses etc. and I was just thinking about that time when I had a Dialer installed on my comp.
Okay, some of you may know about this type of thing for computers, if your on dialup i believe, that if you go to certain websites, just like a virus, a Dialer will install itself and dialup to far away countries and cost you lots of $$.
This has happened to me once (like 2 years ago) and I was totally oblivios to the whole thing, cuz I had my "handshaking" on silence. I couldn't hear it at all. My phone bill came in at $300 for that phone call... turns out I called some place in africa.
