So glad to hear it! Feel free to tell your friends – I’ll let you know when I have TOO much business.

Tonight I got on your blog. First thing I emailed you about was the wonderful classes you offer. The second thing was telling us of deals, like the printer at Walmart. Now I read this on your blog and found I have an ipod that is being recalled. I went to the link you provided and mine does qualify. Jack Pot again with your information. Thanks

Comment on You Might Get a Fake Email From One of These Companies That Looks Totally Real by TekChicLaurie

Just opening it most likely isn’t dangerous. I’m sure the message encouraged you to click on a link in order to check on something, verify something, etc. As long as you don’t go to the web page (which will be a fake) and try to login, you’re fine. If you did, then login DIRECTLY to the web site using your browser’s address bar (http://…..), login and CHANGE YOUR PASSWORD IMMEDIATELY. Like I always preach, DON’T click on links in email.

Glad you like it. I do my best to make it useful to “normal” people. Most folks have enough to do in life without having to spend time becoming experts in computer security or reading books just to figure out how to use their digital equipment, that’s why “everybody needs a geek in their life”
