Danny can now access this guzzi board through yahoo or bing, etc., but not google ( stupid pop up still comes up here on google).


What does 'access this guzzi board through yahoo or bing, etc' mean? It is normally accessed through a web browser or Tapatalk.

Good judgement comes from experience.
And experience. That comes from poor judgement.

We are getting masses of phishing emails and have been for some time. looks as they they are coming from hijacked computers. We can get the same message about 5 times in one day, all from different email addresses. Can't block them because the address changes each time.

I suspect that many people don't bother with anti virus and malware protection.

Got one from "Amazon" through Gmail.  It got picked up as as spam even though I shop on Amazon.  Deleted it with the other garbage.
From the Deep Deep South out in left field.  There are no stupid questions.  There are however stupid people asking questions.  🤣, this includes me.  😉 Hawaii.

I get that on my android. I researched it and not sure why it appears occasionally. But only on my phone.
