There are rascals in cyberspace who scrape EMAIL addresses from postings where ever they can find them. Your best bet is to post with something like a Hotmail address for a few reasons: One, they do a good job of scanning incoming mail for SPAM and viruses. Two, they have effective filtering which you can fine tune; and three, if the EMAIL address gets too hot with junk you can always walk away from it and start over. Yes, you are correct. When I went to roger's referenced site (see the Janet Jackson's tit thread -- "her tits are disgusting. http://www.twelvefifteen.com doesnt like them either. check out what they said..."), I picked up a Trojan. Luckily the virus scan caught it. I believe it happened when I clicked on a link on roger's site. John H On the 'Poco Loco' out of Deale, MD on the beautiful Chesapeake Bay! |
