Or simply search Google for "Spam Phishing" and the
name of the institution. They all want you to help, and
they all want to get rid of cybercrime. SHARE or TWEET this!

10 Calculator Widget Question on UGNN Facebook
Last week, I had a long time user group person ask the following question on the UG InfoManger page on Facebook:
"Can someone help me with a Yosemite problem? When I open Dashboard the screen sort of changes to a new "space." As I often use the Calculator and want to see the files behind it to see the numbers, I can't do that anymore! Is there way to keep my desktop visible when in Dashboard? Put me down as a NOT a fan of Yosemite!! Thanks!"
