David Lawrence: Ah ha so I think we are going to find the answer to this question fairly quickly. Does your 13 year old download music of the internet?

Lisa: Yes.

David Lawrence: So we are done answering the question. Number one that activity when done with legitimate sites will do nothing to harm your machine.

Lisa: Okay.

David Lawrence: When that activity is done with illegitimate illegal sites now that the Supreme Court has ruled your machine is going to be messed up beyond repair.

Lisa: Really.

David Lawrence: So for you and for every other parent that says to themselves I don*t know what they are doing on the machine they download music and films and what not I don*t know. That is the wrong approach to take, that is like saying yeah my kid went to store and he shop lifted some CD*s I don*t know what they are doing those kids these days. Okay it*s an illegal activity and the reason that these sites are free its not because they are music fans its because in the process of downloading that music they install in many cases dozens of Ad Networks the net result is popup ads. And then people turned around to use popup blockers which don*t show the ads but still slow your machine down. Right because the ads are still served your machine is still laboring under the ad network you just don*t see them? So it's like, it's like putting a band-aid on a pus pocket. You know what I am saying doesn*t fix it just sort of hides it. So the answer to your question is a very simple one. And that is to A remove the IllGotten games from all of these downloads. And B sit down with your child and say this is wrong. Not only is it wrong legally and morally. But it is also effecting how I use my computer I can get my work done because of what you are doing. So that*s the answer of the question some Summon Substance.

Lisa: So basically there is the free one the free downloads of music and is bad.

David Lawrence: Right if your kid is just like a massing large of music downloads for nothing. I suppose to using iTunes where its 99 cents of fees this is what*s going to happen to your machine back in a moment.
