7 March 2012 10:42157933one of the two howard,not safe these days unless you got really good security of course. - 7 March 2012 13:16157949We have had this happen to us twice in the last couple of months, even with very tight security. Facebook hacked followed by email hacked. Put it all to rights and hey bingo! it all happened again. All working okay now so heres hoping...............
Alan, good luck with all that, I'm sure you know that you will now have to change all your passwords etc, its all such a nuisance too
- 7 March 2012 13:21157950I did receive a stern warning a day or so ago regarding a Trojan contained in an 'invite' e-mail from Facebook having something to do with an Olympic torch and a request to download a flash ad-on. The effect of so acting is entirely FATAL. (to the hard-drive, anyway)Ignorance is bliss, bliss is happiness, I am happy...to draw your attention to the possible connectivity in the foregoing.
