[QUOTE="byronbytes, post: 982529, member: 94740"] I vaguely remember some huge security mistakes I made when I was really young. - Accidentally made a typo in a website, got a popup scam saying you need to call this number, I somewhat believed it. - Accidentally installed a malicious chrome extension that disabled the entire explorer process and forced me into fullscreen chrome (I fixed that quickly.) Who knows what that could've done? Oh I can list so many more, thank god I learned from my mistakes when I was young. [/QUOTE]
