Hello Suzanne, Mala, Donna, Nici and the other Open Spacers It appears to me that Quepasa.com is a valid social networking and dating site with normal aggressive marketing. One of the services that they offer is to automatically send out emails to all your contacts in your contact list if you agree, a service also offered by other social networking tool like facebook and skype.
You can read more about it here http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quepasa Also, siteadvisor.com has no big problems with this networking tool http://www.siteadvisor.com/sites/quepasa.com I also have heard about a virus that is pretending to be a message from a networking site like QuepPasa, LinkedIn or FaceBook to trick your trust, then infects the computer. It is a good idea to keep a copy of your work in a save place if the computer is compromised. These days I like to use dropbox.com to keep copies of my working files.
