Thank you, Audrey! That makes sense, and I do hope I manage to
remember it next time I encounter such a thing.
My personal rule, for now, is, "If there's no subject, and only a link
in the message-- surely it MUST be spam. Just delete and do NOT click."

Unplug your network cable (or turn off your wifi) before you launch
Firefox. That will allow you to close the page.
Then scan with MalwareByte's Anti-Malware (it's free and it works
miracles).
This goes for anybody who thinks he's infected!

I clicked on it because it seemed like a valid list post. However, it
opens a web page in your browser. When you try to close the page, it
creates a popup message asking you why you want to close it, with
only ONE
choice-- an OK to continue loading it.
To get rid of it, I had to quit Firefox. Now, when Firefox reboots,
that
(*&(*& page is still there, demanding that I OK it. Which,
naturally, I
will not do.
I am not blaming the sender, who seems to be a Listmember, but the
insidious cookie she must have on her machine, which is determined to
captivate all our clicks.
However, I am very, very bummed. I hope none of you are taken in
by it.
Bleh.
