just be careful with it, I have AVG, Ad-Aware, Spybot, etc. Also have FF

it can, and it most likely will try to, but it hasn't given me any, so if you have some pretty good protection, and a program to watch your cookies i.e. spybot, you'll be fine


but don't get addicted to myspace, it's really not that great lol
