After clicking on the above link, my anti-virus program immediately displayed the following:

Danger: AVG Search-Shield has detected active threats
on this page and has blocked access for your protection
.


The page you are trying to access has been identified as a known exploit, phishing, or social engineering web site and therefore has been blocked for your safety. Without protection, such as that in the AVG Security Toolbar and AVG, your computer is at risk of being compromised, corrupted or having your identity stolen.

I have been using PayPal for buying and selling for several years with no problems of any kind. I just want to offer a friendly warning to others who may access this site. Perhaps the moderator could remove the above link for the safety of unwary QTH users.
