WE like to see MRCC (SecurityWonks.org) as a LEVEL2 Site (where mainly Helper - Helper Interaction occurs), while we are happy to promote all LEVEL 1 Site Network (i.e. User - Helper Interaction Sites like Subratam.org, SFDC, Spyware Beware, Spywareinfo, TomCoyote, CastleCops, Wilders, Calender of Updates, VitalSecurity, BleepingComputer etc etc all ASAP Sites) directly on our LEVEL 2 Site i.e. Helper - Helper Interaction Site (SecurityWonks.org) by giving weblinks of all sites on the SecurityWonks.org website and "adding a note of Instruction" for Users (Malware Victims who come on site) to proceed moving there to their chociest site (in the Level 1 Site Network) for help in removing malwares from their systems.
