Yeah, I checked out the Apple site of messages that could be ignored but I did not see the SUID ones I had and they looked security-related. I should have mentioned that. The SUIDs actually did come up along with a bunch of Java permission problems, which I did ignore.
But your second link, well, that hit the nail on the head! Plus, I was VERY relieved, actually, by the fact that you thought you had been hacked because I thought I was being paranoid! I also forgot to mention that my friend had to ok a certificate to get to her mail, so that increased my anxiety. Probably the website owner didn't bother to get one?
Thank you so much, and for the quick response because I was ready to bring my computer in to Tekserve. Saved me grief and $$$.
