2) I did not reach PayPal, but some alternative site offering things I did not want. <br>
3) I retyped, "<a href="http://www.paypal.com" target="_blank">www.paypal.com</a>" in the address bar.<br>4) Signed-in PayPal, endeavored to transfer funds and got a security warning , "You probably are not reaching the site you wanted...click here...back to safety." <br>
5) The warning stated that I was reaching (IIRC) "<a href="http://www.roverpal.com" target="_blank">www.roverpal.com</a>" the address bar read "<a href="http://www.paypal.com/...." target="_blank">www.paypal.com/....</a>." <br>
6) I figured that there were DNS shenanigans, so I: shutdown, reset my clear modem and Linksys router, and then rebooted.<br>
7) I signed into PayPal, conducted my business, and logged-out.<br><br>Now I feel remorse. Was that foolish?<br><br></div>Thanks,<br></div>Preston<br></div>
