I was trying to check the scores of the Orioles v Yankees game over the weekend to see the NY media's take on the almost demolition of the high and mighty Yanks by the lowly Os. But every time I hit the Sports page, the anti-virus adware would pop up and tell me I had a virus.
Cool, but I'm running a Mac. Can't you at least make it look like I'm not runing an MS OS?
I mean, come on. You can sniff my OS in the http request can't you? How hard is it to parse the user-agent string in this day and age?
It's a pretty lame way to get attention. But don't switch to the Mac, keep the stupid people on MS OSes, please.
