Default IMPORTANT info about some links posted !!

JUST in case, and to prevent us from getting our computers messed up - Watch out for strange links being posted in threads.......

Yorkie Talk does a GREAT job monitoring spam - but once in a while they slip by unnoticed. Internet forums are a perfect for this, just like our email is - and we all have problems with spam etc. to some degree.

IF YOU SEE a thread by a brand new member with only ONE or two posts to their name advertising links to click on - DO NOT CLICK THE LINKS.

from what I read - GOOGLE has implemented new policies to help stop the mass porn sites and other bad sites on the net - but there are lots of bad sites that these JERKS will try to get internet users to visit.

The way you can check a link BEFORE YOU GO TO A SITE is to do this

Right click onto the link
Click Properties
Where it says ADDRESS - highlight only the URL
PAST that URL into a Google Search


That should tell you if it's a bad site or ok - but if you have doubts - just don't do it.

I think it's great google is doing this ...it's about time the net was monitored better.
