I need some tech advice. On my husbands computer in g mail documents, I found a document that had nothing but a website. Http://55-11.cn/ When I asked him he said it was spam??????Spam in documents? I typed this site into the search engline and it said it was a spammers site. All it did was collect credit card info and personal identities. I also noticed under internet options on the tool bar he has typed under trusted sites http://*canadian rx drugs.com
He said he did not type that in. What do you think?Is he a spammer?Or what else could this info be?

"Is he a spammer?"
Why on earth would you think he is a spammer because he's visited one or two RX websites? Does he have a farm of computers sending millions of emails a day? That would make him a spammer.

To me it just sounds like your husbands computer has some kind of virus or malware which is adding spam sites to trusted sites. I'm not sure what you mean by "Gmail documents." Gmail has a spam folder which collects spam, though.

I'm not trying to be smart, I'm trying to keep an eye out on a profile that has caused a lot of drama with questions in that past that have been shady/borderline ridiculous.
PS, I'm Ms. Pirate, which you could see if you bothered to click on my profile. I've consistently been one person, which is more than your account can claim at this point.
