Do you get questions from surfers complainin ...

that you "hijacked" their homepage?

I just got the following email:

Quote:
Subject: HOW DO I GET

xxxxxxxxxxxxx.COM OFF MY HOME PAGE?????????????????????????????????????????????? ??????????????????????????
and then 1 day later:
Quote:
Subject: get out!!!!

I DO NOT APPRECIATE YOU USING MY HOMEPAGE
he must be really angry, lol

funny thing, he sent me a screenshot of my site but he isnt able to change the homepage in properties


but nothing beats this one:


Quote:
Subject: I don't want your page in my computer


>
> By mistake I open your page and everytime I go to my internet, your page pops up in my screen.
> I don't want that, please, do something or I am going to take this to my local authorities, even if I have to do whatever.
> My e mail is [email protected]
> I want you out of my computer and my life.
> Jose A Fernandez
> 305 476-xxxx
> That is my home number if you need to call me!!
>


I can only imagine how many stupid surfer emails big traffic sites get

Because of Mardi Gras and a couple of days doing for family members I came back to 3000+ messages addressed to my domains. If you are not in my "keep" filters I'm sorry to inform you that anything you sent me recently is going to be lost in a flush

Nah.

I do not deal with sponsors who do those kinda things, and have no hijack shit on my site(s). So I do not get those types. I do get the occasional AOL idiot who wants me to change all pix to .ping or whatever it is AOL uses.

Or something to the effect that AOL is not letting them do something when they visit the site, shit's slow, etc etc. Over the years, most of the idiot e-mails come from AOL users.

So your site employs auto-bookmarking?

I received this one last week, and I don't even run any pay sites.
------------------------

Do not bill me or my credit card. FIrst off, me and my boyfriend tried to order it and it took my credit card number but did not allow us in the site. I do not know if you charge us for nothing, but I am asking you to make sure you do not charge me. I am also pleading with you to cancel this monthly thing. We only wanted it for the three days. Now, we can't even get into the site to cancel it. So, I am not sure why you took my credit card number and block me out of the site and I don't care. Just make sure you don't bill me.
WIll you please send me an email confirming that you recieved this and wiill take care of it. Then maybe, I can use your site in the future.
I can't remember if it is under my name or his. We would have used these as as a user name too.I think. If you need more info, let me know.
Thank you,

Absolutely yes; and it is something that you've always been praying not to happen to you...
