Thanks, Split and Kim,
Yes, Split, I really love shopping online, LOL! But I'm going to try to abstain from it from now on.
Kim said, "I guess the problem here is that you did authorize the transaction, but then you changed your mind. Might be a problem to try and sue them for false and / or misleading advertising, though, particularly given the international nature of the transaction." Yes, and I feel really stupid having done that. This is a very clever and misleading virus program, and someone is sitting back collecting money from naive computer users like me. I have explained to the credit card company that this was a fraudlent claim to rid one's computer of viruses, etc., and hopefully the charge will be waived, but I realize I may just have to chalk it up to experience also.
