Whats all this?
It appears AVG scans all the links on your page whether you clack on them
or not?
I notice this when I get the resuls of a google search and it seems
to be scanning each link or something.
I turned it off.

It will also appear I clack on every porn site under the sun.
Just because that is true does not make it right.
