Question Warning about reading my LS mail

I now receive a red warning box telling me all my LS response replies are not safe to open. This seems to be connected to the problem you had a few weeks ago. I won't open the mail of course and just go into favorites. Do you know why this is happening ?

Weird. None of my stuff is ever safe to open but I don't get the courtesy of a warning. Lucky you!

I'm not really sure of what you're describing here. Is this red warning box on the outside of your mail or exactly where does it appear? Could you forward one to me at: tony@loveshack.org

Who does the warning box appear to be from? Is it appearing in your regular email that you receive from LoveShack or somewhere on LoveShack (private messages)? I'm trying to get a better understanding of your problem and concern so we can fix it as quickly as possible.

What you describe is very unusual.

Thank you for your cooperation!

Mary, I've never had that happened to me. Question though? Have you scanned your computer recently for viruses and done a full scan to make sure you have no spyware and other weird stuff going on? If not, do so and then try again, see if you get the same message.

Thumbs up Thanks a bunch everyone :) !

Thank everyone . Today I logged on to a very lovely site : my LS mail appeared normal and linked me to response posts as in the past.

Tony I will be happy to forward to you what it said , the warning box.

I also had some LS data residual mail in my junk box, very unusual.

I thought the site had been hacked to my dismay a few weeks ago because I could not log in for days.

Then when I did finally log in I received a warning not to open mail.

I thought it was LS trying to protect me.

I have Spysweeper which just swept the site of spyware. I have Norton which gave me a clean sweep a few days ago. That was a full system scan and detects over 180,000 viruses and worms.

My biggest concern of course were the members and that your site was not compromised.

Thanks everyone. I will go back into older email and forward you the entire page Tony to let you know. Or I could type it here.
