I'm probably being paranoid but ...

I just searched for some info on an ereader device and it showed me a page from this forum - or so I thought - I then replied to a thread but it asked me for my username and password. Odd I thought as I'm normally logged in automatically. I then looked at the url and noticed it was slightly different - (67.205.70.12) if it's just a numeric version of the url then all's ok but if it's not then someone is asking gathering user names and passwords and then could use them to get email addresses and perhaps log on to other sites (your bank for instance).

Could you check please.

Mike

This was the url I was on
http://67.205.70.12/forums/newreply....ote=1&p=882987. It looks identical to the thread on this forum but it doesn't have the latest posts.
