I would hazzard a guess it's a recent version of Lookout (More commonly known as Outlook) or Windows Mail.

If you go into the options, check the security options. One will mention links and attachments. Without knowing the exact program, I can't be more specific.

I use BT (Yahoo) and,every now and again, the email front page just keeps refreshing itself every second or two. Makes it impossible to use. I have to close my browser (IE8) and re-open to cure it. :-/

Just opened it with firefox and it seems fine. I don't know what's causing it but I dont like it. My anti virus and firewall seem happy that there's nothing fishy going on...I don't know.... :-/

Never, ever, ever click on links in emails. Never. Ever. Ever.

Cut and paste the link if you must look at it.

I matters not if you know the sender.


So, in summary...

Never, ever, ever click on links in emails. Never. Ever. Ever.

Are you sure about that? Never, ever, ever? Not even if it's a really nice looking link wearing a miniskirt?

That is correct :y


More savvy users may choose to hover over link, and check that the actual URL matches the displayed URL, then click it, but I'd recommend using the safer method of retyping in a browser...
