Phishing site?
 
Sometimes when I am on this forum (http://orbit.dnsrouter.com/~mlu/forums)
I get a warning in my address bar on Explorer that this is a suspected Phishing site. Can some one tell me what this is about? Thanks

Paul

That's Explorer talking... it's based upon the fact that my email address was long ago hijacked off the site and used to "phish" people. Microsoft went one step further - as they are wont to do - and categorised us, without any background checks.

Either ignore their ignominious "recommendations" or switch to Firefox - many of us here have been using the latter for years now.

MICROSOFT SUCKS!! :mad:

Thanks Geoff, It doesn't happen often. I just wondered why it was happening.
