Well, I'm sure the worst web site probably installs worms and the like, and has a hundred vile popups, and I wouldn't endeavor to locate such a site.
I'll mention this site, though, just because it did come to mind. Even as diploma mill rackets go, it's.... I don't know.... http://www.pulc.com

There isn't any one site in particular I would list but some of the characteristics of sites I do not like are:
• Upon access music begins to play (usually some cheesy sounding MIDI file) and there is no way to turn it off.
• To view it well or at all you have to have broadband or T1 (like there is no one left in the world using dial-up…sheesh). And often the animated hoo-ha, or whatever, really isn’t worth the bandwidth anyway!
• Sites requiring Macromedia plug-ins, Java, etc.
• Poor design that makes navigating through it more trouble than it is worth.
• Pop-ups galore
• Sites that demand contact information in order to access pages or downloads.
I like sites that are lean, not a lot of flashy BS, are well thought out so that they are intuitive to use. I pretty much agree with what Dick Gaughan has to say about websites...
Cheers,
David (simple is good) de la Barre

i got pm'd a few weeks ago if i'd be interested to buy a whistle :
"If you are looking for a really great high end whistle a great Chieftain Mezzo-A thats about an inch & half longer than a high d. It's tunable brand new but not exactly cheap. It goes for around $220.00 and I am selling it for $180.00. If you think that you could use one of these please drop me a line in the future.
Good luck,
T.S.C."
i never mentioned in my whole life that i like chieftain whistles, i'm allergic to aluminium, nor did i buy his CD. where is he getting it from??
so i believe this is the worst webside: http://www.talbertstclaire.com/

I really was half tempted to watch Pastor Jack do an exorcism live on TV, but then I thought better of it, thinking that the temptation must be of the devil. :roll:Walden wrote:I'll mention this site, though, just because it did come to mind.
