Warning: MVP.org is not a Microsoft MVP site
 
The Microsoft MVPs have a web domain, mvps.org, which contains what we hope
are a lot of useful articles aimed at being of help to users of Windows.

We have become aware that there is another domain, mvp.org without the s,
and would advise you all that this has no connection with the Microsoft MVP
program or its members, and may put visitors at risk of "drive-by" installs
of malware.

Thanks for the heads up Larry... I'll be sure to avoid that one... :)
Especially as I DO visit the mvps.org domain regularly... :)

Likewise, http://www.nasa.com takes you to a site call "Not A Space Agency."

For pictures of the other types of heavenly bodies, go to:
