Scoping Snopes
It another post it was suggested that folks try their own debunking of scurilous e-mails by going to snopes first.
I think that's a fine idea, and I'll make it even easier for you.

Go here:
http://www.snopes.com/
For Internet Explorer users:
After the page loads, left click on "file" at the top left corner.
Run your cursor down the drop-down menu to "send".
Click on "Shortcut to Desktop".
The "UL" logo will magically appear on your desktop.
yer welcome
;-)

3. I know there a lot of us still kind of "new" to computers.
And there was not a drop of sarcasm intended. It just ocurred to me that a lot of people might not know how to do this. In fact, I used snopes a lot before it dawned on me to just put where I could get at it easily.
