Just when I thought I safe in pretending that I was immune to invasion, I get a warning that a Trojan script was attached to a legitimate downloaded program.  AVG then asked me if I wanted it to swat the fly, to which I clicked, "Yes."  This type of invader seems to be rare.  When I was with AOL's boards, one of the helper's had a similar problem occur where scripting was piggy-backing on a legitimate program.  One must wonder why anyone with such sinister ability would not try to make a morally respectable living instead simply trying to destroy someone else's peace.
