Website safety

Our website is open to registered users to post comments and create forum entries. Which means that users can post links to places off our site which might not be safe. We eventually get around to checking these links but they may exist unmonitored for some period of time. Be careful about clicking on links in these posts particularly ones which use one of the link shorteners like tinyurl or bit.ly. If you see one of those you cannot tell immediately where they will take you. Follow the advice given here to see where they will take you before exposing yourself to any bad side effects.

Most browsers have either built-in or add-on extensions that do some amount of prescreening for evil links. Make sure you have these enabled.
