I use Firefox - have been since the first verson of it was released - And have not had the urge to move back eversince. However - It couldhave been a Poisened Image/Ad - So as a Safty Precortion it may pay to remove those ads from the site For a little wile. - Just a thought Confused

Linux isn't safest O.S. so you always be careful. It is mistake to think that Linux is the safest O.S.

Hmm. I just received the mail-out. I had no idea we had a public relations department. Wink


We do now! Wink


And soon Google Community will be a full-fledged corporation with its own workforce, departments and a nice and cozy little cafeteria! Very Happy

Nice to know that this problem has already been fixed. Great work, guys. Smile

Ha! I never got it either (thank you firefox). I tried out opera, and it had too many bugs when viewing certain sites. Maybe the sites were not up to the "web/html" standard? Anyways, thanks for the email!

I don't know about you guys but I found that my McAfee did a fine job of protecting my computer. It aready got the update for this virus protection, and I didn't know it. I went to download like the e-mail said and I was already updated. Oh, almost forgot, my computer is a Windows XP computer and I am using regular old Internet Explorer, looks like good old regular protection does exactly what it's supposed to do.
