.swf

Ok, I realize some might think I'm a total dum dum...but I really don't know.

If it's an adress, for example: h*ttp://www.blahblah***.swf ...
What does .swf stand for ?

I know there's .com, .html etc...but I never seen ".swf

 

Ok Ron...so one wouldn't need to worry visiting a site with this 'extension', or however you call it ? No?

 

I understand, and thanks for the informative link Ron.

The reason I ask is, on the 10-4ward, there's a link with .swf .
I was just wondering if it would be safe to visit - Especially when some of us
don't have those disabled what you mentioned.

I either never pay too much attention or I don't know. But I never seen a website with the .swf ending.

Am I getting too paranoid ?

 

you can never be to paranoid. I went to that site and it is pretty poor quality. but the kid lip syncing seems to be a little wierd in a funny way.

 

Thanks for saying that bigc.
I guess these days we do have to be in the internet world, huh ?

 

you just have to have good security and be able to trust it or there is no sense in being on the internet at all

 

bigc & Ron,
I am as careful as can be. And of course my security is up to date ~ always.

That's why I didn't visit the link, because I was a bit suspicious, since I didn't know what that extension meant.

Oki Doki. Got it now.

But one more thing: If one wants to go there, ActiveX & CO would have to be enabled, correct ?
Well...not for me.

 

Just flash I believe.

 

Yes, I think I have that plug-in.

And to confirm. ActiveX, plus Active Scripting is disabled.

 

Hey Ron did you look at the link in question? I think It is a little wierd in a funny kind of way

 

Do you mean 'funny' as in laughing or suspicious ??

 

Does SWF not stand for ShockWave Flash?
