Do not be foolish !
Using links in e-mail is what I do daily.
See no problem in that, it's a fine feauture to get where you want to be, without doing stupid copy & paste handlings !
Yes, trusting an e-mail form a fake 'microsoft' should alert you, especially concerning 'updates'.
Everybody (almost) knows how this proces works, but if youre new to this, and every day there are lots of people, you may get fooled.
I think there had been a day in the past you started from scratch too. Everybody had.
So this kind of making a comment has no use of all. Or are you trying to be 'big brother' or 'the guy who knows it all' ??
Well good luck with it.
It's not a very constructive way of behaving. It's almost like you can build youre first tower with nice red, blue and yellow blocks, at the age of three.......
Using a good firewall and an active virusscanner whitch always scans youre e-mail including attachments and is scanning everything you download, is enough to be sure that e-mail links can't do you any harm. In fact it's the same as typing an URL in IE. So what ????
Nice it would be for you if someone is smart enough to fool youre 'automatic update' and you see youre beloved taskbar message.....
