I clicked on an image link in one of the reviews cooltouch has made on pentax forums, and got redirected to a malware site that immediately started bombarding me with "scareware" your-computer-has been-infected pop up notifications. I hadn't encountered this before, fortunately the fix is easy, just go into your browsers settings and block the offending url. (Do NOT click on the pop-ups links).
This was cooltouch's personal web site michaelmcbroom.com so if there are any such links here you have been warned.
I was wondering if anyone has any contact with Michael, he's been a long standing poster here...
