Have you been approached?
Hi
A number of people in my area (Cadiz) have had an email asking about the area; the mailer purports to have relatives in this area. Coupled to this, when logging into British Expats forum, the antivirus program AVG comes up with the following message The page you are trying to access has been identified as a known exploit, phishing, or social engineering web site and therefore has been blocked for your safety. Without protection, such as that in the AVG Security Toolbar and AVG, your computer is at risk of being compromised, corrupted or having your identity stolen. Please follow one of the suggestions below to continue. anyone else had problems?? Davexf |

You might want to run Malwarebytes and Avira in safe mode. They are free programs :fingerscrossed:
