Thanks, Peter.   Now, this may appear to be a stupid question, but what is a
"virtual visiting/business card?"   It sounds to me like it is another form of
advertising that accompanies the large number of spam messages that I receive
daily (more on that in a separate post).  Since I haven't yet clicked yes, your
answer suggests another program is opening them.  But I don't see anything that
resembles a business card (unless I'm not looking in the right place.)   If I
click "yes", where will it likely appear?  as a pop-up, in an address book, or
in some other spot? And, if I click "yes" to see what it is, can I be assured
that I will be able to turn it off if I decide it is merely cluttering up my
computer?
