penski I have but water transport isn't my favorite form of travel. I get a little seasick, so that limits the number of activities I can do on ships compared to land or air transport. I mean, I get bit lightheaded when I try to walk, watch movies or play a video...

Virus via browser

hackerr00t @hackerr00t (21) • Denmark 30 Sep 08

penski I'd recommend switching to Firefox too. Because Internet Explorer is in most computers (because it's bundled with Windows), then it's far more frequently targeted by malware. Of course, don't forget to run virus and spyware checks regularly.

Why is it that nobody knows the difference between "you" and "you're" ?

pimagro24 @pimagro24 (1046) • Thailand 4 Oct 08

Why is it that 80% of the world English speaking population do not know the difference between "you're" and "your"? And of course there is "they're" and "their" . I mean surely they're such common words that you will read them in...

penski they're such common words that you will read them in every day lifeI think much of the problem is that people do very little reading these days, hence they don't catch such mistakes with homonyms. When I was younger, I used to read plenty of fiction...
