 Firefox is not bad, I myself prefer Mozilla, it has email, browser all in one with many features not included in Firefox because as the stand alone browser program Firefox is designed for those migrating from IE, so it emulates a lot of IE functions in its appearance and feel. Either way they both are much more resilient to Spyware, ADware, Malware, virus, and Trojans. All my customers I recommend the 2 above programs to just for this reason. The Thunderbird program is the email program designed to fulfill the Outlook functions. Or just go to Mozilla and get them both in 1 more complete bundle.  They can all be downloaded FREE at www.mozilla.org well worth a serious consideration.

It's clearly a scam, but in order to work you have to use
Internet Explorer and Microsoft Windows.

There's no instant software cure, and there's no substitute
for a skeptical mind, but every Windows user should go to
www.firefox.com and click the "get" link and get the Firefox
browser. It's reasonably better, thoguh not a cure-all like
some claim. It's jsut vastly less stupidly constructed. Internet
Explorer was hacked up with tons of crappy features with little
thought for your security while they were playing marketing
games.


(On my system the above URL just opens paypal's login window,
with my email address filled in, the default login name. I'd
still have to enter the password.

(I think they way it's supposed to work is, it will gain control
of paypal accounts that are already logged in; probably 1 out
of 100,000 people who click the scam link, but all it takes
is one... if you were not logged in at the time you click it,
it doesn't do much.

(I don't run windows nor IE so the phishing software didn't do
anything bad to me.)

It's also good practice to LOG OUT of paypal as soon as you

complete whatever transaction; don't leave the page open!
