"prog radio" links need vetting?!

   I see you're all adopting the Ostrich approach to this problem - heads in the sand.

Well, I just tried that site again; again, even after getting rid of the "Errorsafe" popup (which shouldn't occur - I do have anti-popup software) most of the Aural Moon page is hidden by the "Errorsafe" crap. Then, when closing the page, it seems to want to scan my computer; I had to disconnect from the web to stop all the various popups & messages.

I strongly urge someone here to either a) check out that site, or b) if you are too scared to look there, to remove Aural Moon from your list of progradio links. It's a nasty site.

	I was looking through the "prog radio" links on PA this morning, trying out various sites. One, "Aural Moon", the first on your links list, seems to be merely a cover for downloading some dodgy software (spyware ?!) - "error check" or somesuch crap. Doesn't look like a radio station at all. Can anyone else confirm this? And are these sites vetted in any way before being included on your links page? I had assumed that inclusion there was some guarantee of authenticity.............
