Dave, I get tons of email that looks like it’s from Paypal, asking me to update my account record, check that things are configured alright, or even to “notify” me that a new email address has been “added” to my account. Sheesh! How can I recognize real Paypal email and separate it out from all the phishing and fake messages in my inbox?
Dave, I have an email account in gmail as myaddr@gmail.com but I’m still confused.
How can I forward gmail invitations to my friends?
Hey Dave, I was looking at information on the Mirc website and I happened to come across a link called ircnick.com. Since the link came from an official website, I clicked on the link only to be redirected to a site called eta.us. Ever since hearing about phishing and malicious websites (e.g. Googkle) I was concerned as to whether or not the site I was redirected to was insidious in any kind of way (whether or not I had spyware, adware, trojans, etc.). I scanned my computer using various virus and adware scanners (everything was clean). Still feeling uneasy, I need advice, therefore I’m asking you.
Dave, how do I get rid of or uninstall MSN.com home page? I want Yahoo but everytime I change it to Yahoo.com that darn MSN.COM home page comes back. It’s a pain.
Dave, I know that you’re a fan of Google, but I’ve been trying to work with MSN Search instead, just to see how they’re trying to crack the search nut. It’s pretty darn cool, but, of course, their search language is totally different to what Google has. On the other hand, they have this way cool, but confusing ‘Search Builder’. Can you step me through how to use Search Builder, please?
Alright, Dave, you’ve convinced me to sign up and use Google’s Gmail Service and I now have an ever-growing pile of archived messages. I know that I can just type in a word or two to the search engine and find messages, but being Google, I’m wondering if there are more sophisticated searches I can use?
Dave, I see that you are an expert on Microsoft’s MSN Hotmail service. Can you tell me whether there’s any way I can configure my Hotmail account so that when I send mail from that account, it has a different ‘reply to’ address? That’d be super helpful and keep me with Hotmail!
Just for fun, I recently signed up for an AOL account through one of those ubiquitous free CDROMS, and now that I’ve poked around a bit, I’ve decided to shut it down. It’s time to return to the real Internet. But I’m a bit stymied. How do I cancel my AOL account?
