Free movie, right…

Don’t click on stuff like this, when it pops up in your browser:

Fake movie ActiveX download

The givaway in my case is that I run Mac OSX and that dialog box looks distinctly Windows XP. And ActiveX is kinda the wrong thing to offer to me. But there are other signs, too. Be warned about this, since clicking installs a trojan on your machine (at least if you’re running Windows).

If they had adapted the screen for OSX browsers to look like an OSX dialog box, I would have been easier to sucker into this, so there’s no reason to relax too much.

This particular site is “webmovies-a.com”. Don’t go there.
