Really weird ???
« on: October 07, 2011, 14:54:48 pm »
In a recent post on Support/Info for gifted kids, I typed the word 'money'. When I previewed my post, the word highlighted in blue. When I clicked it, it was a link to a site that could be considered spam (something about making money from home). It's not the type of site I would visit so I ran a scan on my computer and I didn't find anything malicious and nothing in spyware. I re-typed it and it didn't happen. A little confused and more concerned for the site. I'll definitely be previewing my messages from now on so I don't bring anything in, but not entirelly sure it was something on my end ???

Just a thought though: is there any way that when you type a post you would automatically preview it before posting? Or is that a huge undertaking and not overly necessary?

Thanks,

Vicki

Have you seen it again?  I recall a while back we had that issue too, don't know if something was changed to make it go away...

I remember once a looooong while back when we had switched servers or formats or something like that, it did that all over the place before it got turned off.

I've not seen it again, but I've been slammed with spyware thanks to leaving my laptop open and having two girls decide on what to click ::) So I have no idea if this was on my end now or not. Hopefully not, I'd hate to have sent something bw's way. I'm so tech un-savvy I'd have no idea if it did  :-[.

And Erin - that's an awesome profile pic :)
