Very interesting for a novice like myself TeMerc,

However if a super worm takes over the net, nobody will go on the net, if they are going to be bombarded with pop ups, and can't use the net, .

so what are the hackers going to do then?

Seems to me they are going to have to go at each other.

Remember I'm a novice.
