No worries. Glad the link was a good one.

Looking for usual patterns can help, but only so much.  After all, if 
they're usual they're usually found in the usual places, and things like 
mailing lists often have public archives.


Ralph's practice of keeping his browser containerized is probably the 
best bet, something Qubes OS is designed to do for all apps, and 
something we'll likely see more of from other OS vendors.


For us app developers, and old-time users accustomed to freely 
interoperating among programs, the future may seem a dim place, where 
each process is ever more tightly sandboxed, with what little data is 
allowed to be exchanged happening through narrow channels controlled by 
the OS.


But with things like IDN homograph attacks, there's really nothing 
anyone can do to prevent clicking on bad URLs - we either give up 
clicking URLs altogether, or accept ever tighter app sandboxing.

I don't mean to imply the link Richmond posted was malware. I was responding to 
the post where Richmond indicated he didn't see what was wrong (I took that to 
mean clicking a link in an email) to which I responded that what was wrong 
(with clicking links in general) is that it may seem to be from one person when 
actually it is not. Given that has actually happened to people on this list, I 
don't think it is out of the ordinary to be a little cautious. And since he 
usually signs Richmond, and this time it was signed Richmond Mathewson, I 
thought it might be a good opportunity to remind everyone on the list who do 
like to post links, that it is easier to trust when the list member uses a 
unique signature that no one else could have discerned. 

Sorry for the confusion.

Yes, all sorts of things are possible, and perhaps we should all be 
using Qubes OS.


Here I was most interested in learning the specifics Bob reported with 
the link.

Even if the link seems to direct to a file, this could not be the case. The

https://qck.biz/sample.pdf

So you never can be sure. ;)

I've altered it for safety here, but it would be unusual if it were.


The link is direct to a PDF (a format which is not entirely without 
its risks I suppose) but isn't embedded within a page that has 
JavaScript. Indeed, it's not an an HTML page at all.

OK, Bob, and all others who find it creepy when I use my full name:

I didn't!

My FULL NAME is John Richmond Mathewson.

The only people who call me 'John' are my family and the children I teach.

I have used my second name since 1988 for all professional activities 
[mainly because I was, at that time, working at a Primary school in the UAE,
where teachers are always called 'Mr John' or 'Mr Richmond' and there 
was another teacher who was older than me whose name was 'John'].


End of transparent patch!

Sometimes spending too much time on, frankly, extremely petty things 
like this could be a waste of time.

someone is spamming the list with a drive by. 

I always advise people to have a little text signature so that people can tell 
who know you that the email came from you personally. My Dad used to use L/D 
for Love Dad. I use Bob S. Your full name won't do, that is something a spammer 
could easily put in the email themselves. 

I think if everyone on the list followed this practice, and we got used to 
seeing that signature in all your posts, we would be more inclined to do what 
we have always been taught to NEVER NEVER DO, and that is, click the link. 

Bob S

Thanks. It is an interesting article. I tend to agree and I think it 
would be fun to give BBC Basic a try. The purpose may not always be to 
move on to other programming languages however and so I still might 
start with LiveCode right-away.


Kind regards,
