Warning to those who use Paypal...

I just noticed that when I key in www.paypal.com in address bar, IE
directs me to paypal address http://www.paypal.com, which seems to be
a bit strange...

1st there is http instead of https, and secondly there is no padlock
on status bar.  Manaully enter https will direct me to a site which
seems a bit different from previous one... with the padlock.  My
fellow PIC lister, BEWARE!

By the way, I had seen lately quite a lot of e-mail in my inbox,
pretending Paypal with the security warning etc... It said I have to
log in to prevent my account from being blocked etc etc...  I believe
many had recieved such e-mail too.


Good luck.
