I think you missed the part where Jim said "do not excerpt your own material," and "We're not really that interested in driving OUR traffic to YOUR blog." I even put it in bold for you. Maybe a visit to the eye doctor is in order.

turn on your virus software...and check out my work

I have virus software, but there are always new viruses/adware/trackers/malware/etc. constantly coming out and some of them know how to slip past virus software or even disable it. I have kept my computer clean by not visiting sites that are full of cr*p.

You, it seems, don't really care about FReepers' computer safety. All you seem to care about is using FR as a hit farm. If this was not the case, you wouldn't be throwing such a fit about posting your work in full or insisting on sending freepers to a trash-ridden blog to see what you could have easily posted here.

Actually, virus software won’t help a bit in cases of sites like these.

They’re not actual viruses.

They’re trackers deposited on your PC via ‘malignant’ cookies.

Only by disabling cookies [which isn’t foolproof, btw] can it be avoided and then you have the hassle of creating “rules” for every website you *do* want to allow cookies for.

The creeps who invent these maleficent codes do it for profit and and sharing your personal info/browsing habits for targeted ad campaigns.

Going there with ‘virus software’ is about as effective as wearing a dust mask to a whorehouse.
