Aldi had a sale this week on rack of lamb, so I grabbed a package.

My wife used Google to look for a recipe, clicked on a website, and got the "You have a virus, call <phone number> for Apple support" scam message.

Of course she did not click on anything on the scam site.

I suggested that she scroll down and go to the AllRecipes site instead. I have used that site many times, good recipes, no problems.

A few days ago I got my browser locked by a pop up. I cntrl-alt-deleted and closed browser. No big deal.

I'm a member of Allrecipes as I like it also. Not that I need any of the How To Videos but many are well done and enjoyable to watch.
I think I have more saved recipes than those I've made.
