So I'm cautious, sue me. As for the liar part, well I'll just let that
go as the rantings of a tired old bitter installer wannabe.

Nothing wrong with tinyurl.com, it just is sometimes used to hide bad sites.
Enable the preview and you can see the destination site before launching it.

and a subsequent reply from an unknown poster (would have been nice if you
didn't snip the message ID)
"Rick

The link redirects to:
http://bits.blogs.nytimes.com/2008/05/22/weak-economy-boosts-sales-of-picture-tube-tvs/index.html?ref=technology
(safe too)
There was nothing wrong with Basshole's link, it redirected to:
http://books.google.com/books?id=kZEz-ogMXGwC&pg=PA67&lpg=PA67&dq=alarm+battery+load+testing&source=web&ots=Lb8SjIt_Bf&sig=acqK_pRkbRErl83aa34cv7aDhqo&hl=en#PPP1,M1

ZoneAlarm is stupid, too much "Chicken Little" and "Boy that Cried Wolf" to be
effective.

No one. He lied, claiming that the URL which pointed to a respected,
well-known site was dangerous. He clearly never checked it out before going
into auto-lie mode else he'd never have made such a stupid claim.
