Also, be sure there's NO "@" in the URL, even if it does
start with those characters, and get used to looking for
the security icon (usually a closed padlock or non-broken
key icon) on your browser, although you say in your email
that you delete the numerous spams anyone who posts
here sees, there may also be malicious sites with fake
e-gold URLs.

Also, this is a good time to mention "Shields Up," a very
useful tool,  https://grc.com/x/ne.dll?bh0bkyd2  which
only takes a couple of minutes to use. See what it says
about your computer, it's free.
