> Hello all!
>
> Recently there have been  messages with suspicious links in them.  A few
> weeks ago there was the issue with spoof email.  So I thought I'd take a
> moment to make some suggestions.
>
> Minimize sending and opening attachments.  Never open an attachment that 
> you
> have no idea what it is or who sent it.    FYI I only extremely rarely 
> open
> attachments sent to lists.
>
> The NAGDU list does allow attachments.  I ask that you announce the
> attachment in the body of the message and explain what is in it.
>
> Keep your anti virus, spyware, firewall etc software up to date.  That 
> still
> doesn't guarantee 100% safety, but it goes a long, long way.  The local
> computer repair store charges $100 to remove viruses.  I just spent about
> that  amount for three years of anti virus protection for my son's 
> computer.
> You do the math.
>
> Do not open links sent in email from people you don't know.
> Generally people introduce themselves if they are new to the list.  If you
> don't know who the sender is and the message came from the NAGDU list, 
> ask.
>
> Use caution with email that has strange subject lines or no subject.
> Please use subject lines when sending messages to the NAGDU list.  More
> people will know what your talking about, feel better about opening the
> message and it's just good netiquette.
>
> If the only thing in an email is a link, use extreme caution.
> I extremely rarely open these.  Again if you're sending a link to the 
> list,
> please let us know what it is.
>
> If the link looks odd, don't open it.  Generally speaking links will be a
> business name or short description of the type of service, followed by 
> .com
> .net .org .biz .edu or .gov   Sometimes there is a two letter extension 
> that
> indicates the country.  Use extreme caution if you don't recognize it!
