Is this forum spywarevatar

Advark a Avast evangelist has seen my Avatar on IE. As I’ve not downloaded an Avatar I find this unusual How do i cancel my membership.

elfpattaya,

I think you might have missunderstood what He was telling you, I think he was trying to be helpful by letting you know that your ava wasnt showing, as there’s a red x in the center of the box.(the same kind of helpful as in telling someone there email is being shown)

Usually when someone tries to download a ava and something goes wrong thats what happens. His IE comment was just that that is the brower he uses, while using this forum, as apposed to firefox etc. I too use IE, and I see your red x, maybe its the same for firefox users, I have no idea.

I cant speak for him obviously, but perhaps you can see what Im saying. No one in here is spying on you, rest assured. I think its just a simply missunderstanding.

enjoy the day

Yes,

This is a major misunderstanding! :stuck_out_tongue:

Yes, no one here is spying.
People don’t usually go to the police station to pick pocket.

The only spying going on is the bots that will harvest your e-mail address,
which you have not hidden from the public in your account settings.

Hi…

Please see my post (#27) here. I can assure you that I did not spy on you nor do I have the ability or desire to do so. :slight_smile:

@everyone else who posted on this thread: Thank you for your explanations and for following up. :slight_smile:

Best Wishes :slight_smile:

Apologies to Ardvark and anybody else I may have insulted on this Forum, I have since discovered that my wife unsuccessfully tried to upload a picture. As I very rarely use IE, I did not know about the red cross. Thank you Asyn for telling me to hie my email address, although I thought I had already done this.

You’re welcome…!!

You are safe now. 8)

By the way IE is used everywhere in Windows so it is best to keep it updated:
Windows Explorer uses IE as the Grapihcal User Interface (GUI)).

Also from his wife, trying to upload things…?? ;D

When I got married I got rid of my Encyclopedias as my wife knew everything. :o

LOL, sorry for you, then… ;D 8)

Hi…

Not a problem, you are certainly forgiven. :slight_smile:

When one is retired like I am I have to budget my money. :cry:

Thankfully I am no longer married and have to endure Shopping Trips ;D
