This may be old news, but along the lines of goggle.com, yesterday hubby stumbled across a lovely little site that we suspect is prolly loaded with adware at least (if you venture there you'll note how many times they repeat themselves offering variations of "FREE DOWNLOADS"). I was going to go bounce around on it from the relative safety of OSX last night but my puppy had other ideas.

There may be no "i" in team, but make sure you've got one in Mozilla. Rolling Eyes

Looking around it now...I am a proponent of open source, and this is seriously misleading, and as far as I can tell, an outright scam.

mozlla.org = typical TypoSquatter site that is "Parked" along with "688,501 other sites hosted on this server".
