When common sense fails us....

I find it rather funny that this article warns us of sites that claim to be about the headbutt, and here people are, responding to the comment with more links.....like I'm gonna click on them after reading this!

I just use Taceo. That way I don't end up going into websites with malicious intentions or opening up an attachment that contains a virus or worm. I know who's sending me what, and whether it's safe enough to open. But then again, people have been using major events and people for years now to bait people into voluntarily clicking on links...

It seems more like common sense now to not open up such emails titled "Naked pictures of Britney!" But just in case common sense fails us, which it does from time to time....that's when it's good to have a backup plan.
