Users of Internet Explorer can now pick up spyware while visiting Blogger. Bloggers who install on their pages various enhancements which depend on java or Active X can unknowingly infect vulnerable visitors with spyware, or inundate them with popup ads.

I found the story at Opera's new search page. Is everybody going to have a search engine?

But at last I've outsmarted Windows XP (not saying much, I know) and gotten Opera installed. It seems a bit slower on this computer than it does on Sluggo, though. Maybe I've just got a crappy connection tonight. Off to fetch Firefox now, I think.
