I don't know where this belongs... but I'm sure someone will move it once someone reports it... but anyhow....
In order to protect your computers ....
I just noted this while researching.
When the American Lyme Disease Foundation comes up in a Google search ... that is the ducks site... there is a warning to all that the site might harm your computer.
I don't know if that is true... but do be warned because it is stated there. Computer repairs can be expensive so don't stumble on there by accident until this is cleared up ... ok?

here's Google's standard explanation about websites that have that warning attached when your search results are listed:
" You can choose to continue to the site at your own risk.
However, please be aware that malicious software is often installed without your knowledge or permission when you visit these sites, and can include programs that delete data on your computer, steal personal information such as passwords and credit card numbers, or alter your search results."

- TC, Dilly, Thanks for the cautions. That is truly a puzzle.
For those new to LymeNet, the American Lyme Disease Foundation is NOT the organization that will help - they are in line with IDSA - a group of Infectious Disease doctors who do not believe that lyme is a big deal. Both groups seriously ignore the facts.
You want the Lyme Disease ASSOCIATION as they are in line with ILADS and they have done their homework. They understand all aspects of lyme and other tick-borne infections.
These two professional organizations go out of their way to help us learn more:
ILADS - International Lyme and Associated Diseases Society
This is the professional organization for LLMDs (Lyme Literate Medical Doctors), LL researchers or other LL professionals - but also anyone who wants to learn more. Their site is a fabulous teaching tool. -

WHAT?
Dilly, you say the IDSA ducks and even their websites MAY want to cause us harm?
As sweet as we are to them...
HOW UNLIKELY IS THAT?
Thanks Keeb for sharing that information. Perfect!

Good Point-cause of confusion.
Are you telling us they are informing the Spanish speaking public that they know what they are
talking about?
