That floating URL effect was kinda cool. And the guy did apologize.

But I was actually about to buy a few sets of Naked Strings today. Figures.

I smell a conspiracy. Or Naked Strings must have scorned a few technically proficient terrorist-bassists when they stopped shipping overseas.

I was just at the site an hour ago, maybe an hour and a half. So that was pretty recent. And now, I'm off to find reviews of naked strings because this thread title misled me into despair.

You don't think that hacked site had viruses/spyware in it do you? I've got to precautionary systems, but I'm kinda paranoid after seeing that thing...

I went there after seeing the thread any none of my anti-virus/spyware software picked anything up. It almost just seems like a prank..

neither did mine, but I am just a little bit freaked out. Why do people do crap like that? It annoys the crap out of the rest of us!
