That explains it! I thought my computer was broken..... Big Grin






.

Having a business, we get lots of crap emails. I've educated our office lady to not click on anything she's not 100 % sure of, even if it comes from someone we know or work with.

The other day she called me in to check an email from the tax dept.
The hyperlink wrote: http://www.ato.vic.gov.au . That's our legitimate Ato tax website?

I hovered over the link without clicking on it so she can see the underlying real web address.
It was something completely unrelated. I can understand how easy it is for people to click on things without thinking too much about it and getting caught...
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.
