I got 9 out of 10. Don't be impressed; I had to guess on at least 2, and just got lucky.
Shows what I know: I missed the first one (MySpace), and when they tell you the "secret" at the end of the quiz... The URL is EXACTLY what I was looking at; I thought that the OTHER one looked like the phony one! Well, just like the other members regarding their missed questions: I wouldn't touch MySpace with a 10-foot pole, anyway! |

The phising link quiz was broken for me, but:
Spam Quiz: 6/8 Tightrope Walker Spyware Quiz: 5/8 Tightrope Walker Well I use Mozilla Firefox with the NoScript add-on, not to mention I use Linux, which does not have much malware for it. |
