"Hi Don,
Not quite sure what was going on, but I did get a message on my browser
that indicated that "this site may be trying to trick you."

Post a link to your website and I will visit it with Firefox, which has the McAfee SiteAdvisor plug-in installed. It will notify me if the website is being redirected to a hostile destination. I can also read the server headers to see if someone has hijacked your website.

I did some research and he was putting www ahead of my email address which was forwarding him to my Internet provider Tampabay.com and asking him to log on.
He thought this was tricking him from the best I can assume.
I've log on to both my sites from my post with no erroneous messages.
The problem has been rectified I believe.
Thank you, http://web.tampabay.rr.com/dsulesky
