I received an email from one of my traffic exchage programs about a trojan on Tiger Surf.
This is not one of the traffic exchanges I have been using but many of us may be experimenting with other traffic exchanges for promotion purposes. At any rate this email related the writer's experience with Tiger Surf. She was able to sign up without any problems but 5 attempts to login resulted in a Trojan warning from her Norton's program.
I wouldn't touch Tiger Surf with a 10 foot pole.
By the Way, I had problems recently because of Adware virus as a result of my surfing activity. I now will not go onto any traffic exchange unless I am using FireFox as my browser. Several times FireFox has blocked a pop up ad which is where I think my original problems came from.
Put up a good firewall on your computer with anti-virus, Ad Ware blockers, and Spy Ware blockers. Also set up automatic updates from Microsoft so you computer has the latest OS updates. These hackers are targeting OS systems and if the OS is not kept updated they have an easier time getting through.
