This may just be a flaw in my own system, but letting you guys know anyway, just in case.

I have Trend for my antivirus, and one of the nifty things it does is let me know when my computer either tries to send out unauthorized information, or when a site tries to pull information from my hard drive.

Something that's been happening the past 24 hours is that sometimes when I go to post here in LJ, my antivirus will block the command to keep me from posting, and tell me that something is trying to access my credit card information. Not all the time, and if I back out, refresh, and try again, I usually don't get the warning again. But...on the off chance someone is trying to use LJ as a phishing/trojan thing, thought I would let everyone know. If your antivirus has the option, and you use your credit card online, you might want to turn on the part that monitors that sort of stuff (or maybe even up the security level if it's on), just in case.

Okies, back to your regularly schedualed thingy.
