| Hello. I am using e-cards on line, for over a months to send nice and cheerful messages to my family. This is very fun and nice to me, and I love to do it. But, I must say that I have noticed some weird behavior with my computer. My Internet Explorer started to display unwanted pop-ups and adult porno sites advertisements. Is it because I used some fake e-card or not? Something tells me that I should make more smarter choice about my e-cards. How to find out? I never had unwanted pop-ups so far. Thanks. |

| It is very hard to determine which one is fake and which one isnt, but there are several ways that you could try. When you see a spelling error with your name or somewhere else on a card. When you cant recognize the senders name (ask your recipients about that) or when it comes from a strange or unknown URL. Are you receiving e-cards from someone too? If you do, than switch your browsing habits from Iexplorer to Mozilla Firefox. Stop using Internet Explorer. There is a very big hole inside IE. Firefox is much, much more secured. |
