If your kids have one? Up your virus protection on your computer. In the 30 minutes my son was on yesterday it blocked over 10 pieces of adware' malware, and spyware, and SiX viruses.


I guess the cyber assholes figure they'll go through our kids now. Webkinz killed my last computer, so like I said. Spend 50 bucks for some updated stuff.

The Webkinz craze seems to have died out a bit at my kids' school, but the last year or two everyone had 250 of those little monsters. My kids are deprived - I refused to buy any of them. But then I am a mean mommy who doesn't let them use the internet except for research. No way in hell are they hogging the desktop to feed virtual pets. Hell, I have to nag for 20 minutes to get them to feed their real pets.

Thankfully my son missed the craze.

I didn't buy the ugly little things. I refused so my sister bought it, and then the donor buys him one about every 2 months... I don't like him online other than homework and my husband loudly explained to me that my locking down the parental controls on the computer to the point where he can't really ever get online without a hassle... "mean and immature"...

I'm sorry... There is a big ass backyard out there. Go play in it, and quit downloading viruses.

Bella has a couple . My big bro sent Rohan a star pet thingy and Bella wanted her own online pet , so she had to save her pocket money and then her Nanna got her another. the star pet thingies crash / freeze the pc so often. The biggest hassle i have with the ebkinz is that when daylight savings ended , the local time settings with them changed in the wrong direction. so all the things you can only do at a certain hour/ day are 2 hours later for us. So if i log on at 10pm to do something for her , it is too late.
and we do not need more damn stuffed toys . the account will also finish a year from buying the last toy , now that sucks too.

We went through the Millsberry.com stage. It was short lived. Virus's up the ying yang.

I'm so glad we're still at the sesamestreet.org stage.  So far, no viruses lol
