Dear List:
I am using windows xp.
First, I have noticed occasionally when closing out of an application, I get a message saying that scheduled maintenance is
in progress. But, when I go to the sys tray, nothing differs from before..When messages like this come up, is there a way to
find out where they are coming from?
Second, On my yahoo internet mail, sometimes I am asked to verify my user id and password. Is this a scam? Similarly, on my
outlook express, I just got a notice to key in my server's password and it said there is a mail server error. Is this also a
scam? How can you tell when password requests are legitimate? Thanks. Regards: Ted Larson
