Bokeh

This one caught my eye this morning - Sex sites out, IT sites in for cybercrooks planting malware - CSO Online - Security and Risk

Yup, I think i read an article last year how you were about 70% more likely to get hit by malware or virus' when visiting religous sites than **** sites. I'll see if I can find that article again.

Well these comments are not surprising when one considers the business models behind various web sites. Pron industry and sites are thriving as a whole and despite their scandalous contents, probably have better sys admins and web dev. I can't generalize about IT web sites but it's safe to assume religious websites are run by non profit organizations whose budgets for e-commerce efforts can be quite limited. Everybody gets a chuckle out of reading about the obvious, but it'll remain this way for a long time.
