I have several programs that check everything that I send out and a son who is a computer programming guru so I am well protected. For all the stuff I have sent out over UHH and my other personal email I have never had an instance where I sent out anything with a virus or other malware.


OK, thanks for your explanation. Perhaps I over-reacted and I apologize if I have offended you. I will try to be more politic in the future, at least with regards to links posted by you as I now know that you check them carefully before posting them.

But, for the record, I have learned over the years to be wary of links posted without explanation, just a "Hey, look at this!" I see these often in unsolicited emails and on websites. I look at the return email address or the URL and often it sounds suspicious. "Greedy Finance" fit squarely in this category.

Question (rhetorical) for you: If you received an email or saw a URL link that said "Hey, look at this" without further explanation, would you click on it without hesitation? And if the return email address or the URL included a phrase like "Greedy Finance", would you question it?

No since it has already gone through my screening procedures.
