Well, I cannot speak to what your anti-virus software detected, however, I consider the source before I click on a link. Is the poster a long-time contributor to the forum? Is their profile visible? Are their posts informational or controversial? Do they post and run (i.e. start threads then ignore them, never responding to inquiries)? Are they a troll? For me, their credibility depends on those factors. If I’m interested in the information in a post but wary of the link, I will simply go straight to a website without clinking on said link (i.e., www.dell.com) and that solves that issue.
Pegi, this nitpicking at Christine is unprofessional and unbecoming. She’s remaining professional. If you’re not interested in what she has to share, simply ignore her posts...just don’t even click on them. |
