I had posted to a topic a while back that I had subscribed to. This morning I received an e-mail indicating a new post had been made to this topic with the poster's comment and a link to an application recommended the poster were in the e-mail. I clicked on the link Firefox loaded and Web of Trust displayed an unsafe site warning and stopped the page from loading. I then logged into BC, went to the topic thread and the new post was gone. I am guessing that a Moderator already removed the post. I continue to be impressed by this forum as I had already noticed how quickly inaccurate information information is corrected by other posters. I am very thankful to the all the Moderators and posters for doing a super job of keeping this forum top notch!!

Thanks for the kind words Justa

Can you copy the email sender and the link without clicking on either and send them to me via a PM - Please?
