Joyce, both of those take me to www.xxx.com, a place none of want to be 
caught looking. Indeed, I used a Linux system, not my Winders, when I 
tested them, just to make sure nothing bad happened to my machine; also, 
no family members can view what's on my Linux systems unless I let 'em, 
unlike the Winders machines. www.qiuweyreyr.com (or www.qiuweyreyr.com.) 
is a better fake URL.
