If those links potentially contain malicious code, why are you reposting them for others to click on?

Anything bad going to happen to me?
I let my guard down and hit one of the links that the banned poster ulkanda inserted in one of his messages. (Example below)
ok. look this answer ===> Removed
All of them actually link to Removed
I've searched through so many forums and no one has remarked to his post, so I'm guessing there was nothing malicious on the site.
I'd appreciate any confirmation that I haven't accidentally downloaded something.Last edited by Keelie; Feb 20th, 2005 at 12:38 PM. Reason: Link removed

Did you dowload anything? If nothing was downloaded or installed, chances are you are ok. This is assuming you have an up to date virus scanner & firewall of course.

its not a good idea to post links unless you know they are ok.
all of the links ulkanda posted have been removed._______________
That's my 2cents worth

I reported two of his posts myself. Couple of weeks ago he/she posted several links to the same site. I checked it and it had no code or whatever.
To be safe, you can scan your harddrive I guess.
