I found this useful page explaining the pros and cons for the various video formats out there during my research into the best ways of creating video blogs …
Very nice! 
A friend of mine got an email yesterday supposedly from PayPal asking him to update his customer information …
It seemed to be legitimate - all the links seemed to point to PayPal, until he viewed the email’s source code (yes you can do that) … and found something different …
[p]To update your PayPal records click on the following link:[br /]
[a href="http://www.paypal.com/us/"][table][tr][td]

As you can see there’s a URL to a “latino.no” - which is obviously nothing to do with PayPal …

If in doubt, either contact the company or just ignore it …
Don’t thank me, thank Ed for telling us about it …
Cheers
