Hi Helene,
That was a great explanation of the virus. I'm still receiving alot of infected emails from alot of different people. My fingers have been busy with the delete key.
In regards to your question about anyone adding site links: yes and no. There are two distinct areas here that are in question. The BREEDS section of GoatWorld has a few of the breed pages set up where anyone can add a site. Definitely a breach of security now. That's the area that I need to change ASAP. The other area is the Searchable Links (there is a link to it up above on the Message Forum - Believe it says "add your links" or something like that). Anyone can add sites there as well - the nice thing is that I have to approve them before they are added. So in that case, if someone adds a site not related to goats, I simply delete it before it is ever viewed by the public. The add links in the breeds section isn't that way. I had set it up based upon an honor system but that didn't work I see now. If I could go through each page everyday and check them I would. Instead I am just going to keep changing things around so I have to approve information or links before it is added. Except in the case of the Message Forum where I "know" the people I am dealing with.
Best regards,
Gary Pfalzbot
