My Browser was Hijacked...

I am sorry I was unable to post comments and answer emails for the last few days it seems my browser was hijacked.....

I also shop online and while I was out browsing I was visiting some new links and someone sweetly designed a banner link that looked like a place I would shop and I clicked on it and there you go. The next morning my home pages were all changed and a little pop up kept coming up whenever I logged in somewhere and a friend posted to not go to this same link and I knew I was had. Well 3 days later, one day with Microsoft and one day with Mcafee because both of those systems missed it, I was clean. It is such a violation and all I can think of is if they put that much time into helping others, building a legitimate business or creating something useful on the computer how much further we would all be. So here is my policy.....

I take and make every effort to keep my customers, clients and bloggers safe. I do not post comments with questionable links, I do not link to anything I have not checked out myself and I check all my links on a weekly basis. I want you all to feel safe when you visit me or my links. I even check out links from their links which is how I got hijacked. Better me than you. So when you click on links I have listed they have been checked, double checked and triple checked but once you are out into those links be careful where you go.

The name of that  link was called Pink Paint and Roses
 
I would like to encourage all my other business friends to do the same if they are not already doing it and I will be posting that these links have all been checked and the date I checked them on my links page on my website.
