Hi,
FYI
I wasn't looking for a porn site. I was looking for animal photos
such as tigers, cheetahs, etc. using a search engine. In the list, was a
site that aroused my curiosity, which turned out to be a porn site.
I didn't pay for anything. In fact, I never pay (typing a credit card
number) for anything while I am on the web. See my tag line at
bottom.

I will admit, I am guilty. I did it to see what was there (curiosity).
Sorry, I don't remember the site address. Afterwards, when I boot up my
computer, I received a New PCI device detected message. It turns out that my
modem (dial up) was no longer usable as though the hardware driver was
removed. If I re-install it, it is removed again during the next boot up.
Fortunately, I make backups of my entire system/s. I completely removed
"WINDOWS" (Win98) and "Program Files", and replaced them with a backup.

Before you type your password, credit card number, etc.,
be sure there is no active keystroke logger (spyware) in your PC.
