Early Sunday morning I was trying to sign into Astro.com and it looked very strange graphically and was having a difficult time coming through clearly. The normal sign in graphics weren't working, so another strange looking box popped up asking for my sign in name and password. It didn't work with the 1st account, so I tried another account that I have. It worked after I fiddled around with it a few times.

Well, they must have gotten information off of my hard drive because I received an email at one of my email accounts asking me to confirm my PayPal account information. I DON'T HAVE PAYPAL WITH THAT E-MAIL ADDRESS!!

Somehow, they figured out that I just got a PayPal account very recently and found that email address.

So I just wanted to warn everyone here that if they have a very strange experience with Astro.com, sign out of your internet, shut down your computer and if you can, do a clean up of your hard drive. Especially if you do any banking on your computer, which gratefully I don't.

Everyone here be safe, God bless you and your computers.

Who would have thought they'd get me through a reputable astrology site? But they almost did.

There's probably no need to make any changes unless you've had the experience I did. You would definitely have noticed a big difference.

When the site came up it looked as if they temporarily went to a very old format with archaic graphics from the past. It just didn't look right.

I didn't think about it very hard because it was the middle of the night, I was sleepy and I was taking pain medication so I was the most unsafe part of the equation at that point.

Maybe the lesson is "Don't Surf Sleepy while doing drugs" LOL!! You're probably alright.

ok, no kidding aside, thanks I was just there creating two new charts and didn't get that , thank goodness.

But, I'll watch for it.
Weird part is that when I saved the pictures to my computer I couldn't upload them to photobucket like I usually do, so I had to use a direct link and do it that way.
I wonder why.

I wonder if Astro.com had any problems lately that they are trying to fix. I'm not that savvy about virus' and trojans and all those things, but I know I have tried to get into their site from time to time when they were updating or doing maintenance and I couldn't get in, but I don't know why you couldn't upload your files to photobucket. Maybe if you try later or something.
