What is the From address associated to pm's sent from this site? Also, what's the mail server's I.P. Address? I think my server side spam filter is blocking mail from badweatherbikers.com. Thanks in advance. -- | ||

I believe it is the senders email address, which of course will not match the email headers, which then might trigger your spam filter. Google mail spam filters have no problem with it. I will send you a PM for a test... | ||

Dago, the mail I sent you is from gmail.com. Did you get that? I received your pm to me and replied to it. | ||

Hey! Google mail now has a "report phishing" button. How cool is that! | ||

What is that? Phishing? | ||
| Stealthxb  |
(fish´ing) (n.) The act of sending an e-mail to a user falsely claiming to be an established legitimate enterprise in an attempt to scam the user into surrendering private information that will be used for identity theft. The e-mail directs the user to visit a Web site where they are asked to update personal information, such as passwords and credit card, social security, and bank account numbers, that the legitimate organization already has. The Web site, however, is bogus and set up only to steal the user’s information. For example, 2003 saw the proliferation of a phishing scam in which users received e-mails supposedly from eBay claiming that the user’s account was about to be suspended unless he clicked on the provided link and updated the credit card information that the genuine eBay already had. Because it is relatively simple to make a Web site look like a legitimate organizations site by mimicking the HTML code, the scam counted on people being tricked into thinking they were actually being contacted by eBay and were subsequently going to eBay’s site to update their account information. By spamming large groups of people, the “phisher” counted on the e-mail being read by a percentage of people who actually had listed credit card numbers with eBay legitimately. Phishing, also referred to as brand spoofing or carding, is a variation on “fishing,” the idea being that bait is thrown out with the hopes that while most will ignore the bait, some will be tempted into biting. | ||

It was really bad for a while, as internet explorer (and people wonder why IT professionals hate Microsoft) had an unpatched and well known bug for *months* that allowed sites to invisibly masquerade as other sites. Everywhere you looked within IE, (URL entry bar, properties click, mouseover, you name it), it appeared you were at the honest site (http://www.paypal.com) when in reality you were on somebodies cracked cable modem connection (http://29.55.215.39/ur0wned). It's still a huge problem, and very hard to defend against. | ||

After listening to you and Glitch talk, I downloaded Firefox and got the family using Gmail. I love Firefox's Tabs. In Firefox I can't download PDF,s. Rollover info does not appear (like when Court hides funny messages in his picures). Is there a setting that I missed somewhere? | ||
| Tripper |
Good explanation Tramp! That's what I was thinking. | ||
| Xb9er  |
Try Firefox 1.0 (not the preview). I have gotten rollovers (viewing of alternate text in images) to work in that version. Weird about the .PDFs not downloading. Those have been working for me since the 0.9 versions. Tabbed browsing is very, very useful. Take that IE. edit. May want to uninstall the previous version and clean the registry instead of update.

| Rockbiter1 |
I'm using firefox exclusively now, except for bank transactions...good good stuff! | ||
| Odie |
Rockbiter, why not bank transactions? Mine goes secure. Something I don't know about? | ||
| Dago |
Thanks Reep! That's exactly what I needed. |
