Description
Near the end of 2003, I was told to use a coworker’s computer when he was on vacation because it was faster. I had to log on to the Internet to access my work e-mail from his computer. I mistyped the URL and got redirected to another site, where about 10 pop-ups were dumped on me. I closed them and thought nothing of it.
The next week, my boss said he needed to talk to me about the files I put on my coworker’s computer. It seems that about 1,000 pornographic and gambling shortcuts had appeared on the coworker’s desktop. I tried to explain that I didn’t do it intentionally and that spyware was the culprit, but he said he’d never heard of anything like that happening, and I got written up.
I tried to keep my job but everyone treated me like I was a porn addict. I ended up quitting because I couldn’t work with people so ignorant. It took me a long time to get over what happened.
