Having that info would be very helpful as a sticky (made that request in the correct forum).
I blocked several drive by Malware attempts from that last image search (and that was excluding the truly shady stuff from Russia and the Philippines). Do be careful out there.
Sorry for taking this thread off-topic....

Unfortunately there are some like the comment above that feel 'we' are trying to subvert this thread because 'we' want to assist people in 'how to' information about image searches. My comments to you were a little tongue and cheek, but I see you get it and didn't get offended. I agree that it would be a good thing to have in a noob sticky in the 'help' section.
About searching those shady websites there isn't an easy answer. If my anti virus warns me about a website I don't go right ahead into it and I don't advise anyone else to do that either. Sometimes chasing porn simply isn't worth the effort if it crashes your computer.
PS ... I noticed you're from Bean Town. Go

PSS ... I don't know if you've checked out my thread linked in my sig, but you might find some tips on how to safely find the babes you're looking for. Some good searchers have contributed to the thread and given some good info so you have to go through the thread to find the gems. Good luck!
